I see you moving toward the door I see that distant look in your eyes I ask if you'd like any more Your answer doesn't come as a surprise Distraction, conversation Now the time has gone and it's too late I wait for your reaction Sit and watch the action on my plate Kiss my lips, take my hand Put your battered arms around me and hold tight Have another glass of wine and close your eyes And as long as we're here Why not just count all the stars up in the sky That should keep you here before you say goodbye I'm not a lunatic tonight I made myself that promise last time But I won't give up without a fight Refusal to move off this one line What is this hyperactive Too distractive to believe the truth Instead I'm just reactive Getting late to blame it on my youth Kiss my lips, take my hand Put your battered arms around me and hold tight Have another glass of wine and close your eyes And as long as we're here Why not just count all the stars up in the sky That should keep you here before you say goodbye
