Lyrics

Well now it won't be but a week or two And you'll be out lovin' someone new Must have happened a hundred times before But I can see you been spreadin' yourself thin too It's a lonely stage we've been goin' through Well don't get up I can find my own way to the door Well I can see you are an angel whose wings just won't unfold Tune up your harp, polish your old halo Yeah the only kind of man that you ever wanted Was one that you knew you'd never hold very long Sittin' there cryin' like I'm the first one to go Yeah you may have thirty lovers behind you Yeah, I can feel you but I sure can't find you Seems like you would have found your own self by now But late at night your old lover's tears come back Faces in your dreams, fingers in your back Voices of the memories cryin' out loud Now I can see you are an angel whose wings just won't unfold Tune up your harp, polish your old halo Yeah the only kind of man that you ever wanted Was one that you knew you'd never hold very long Sittin' there cryin' like I'm the first one to go Ah what a joyous sight to see you in your sleep Now I believe I'm leavin' I'm in too deep And that seems easy enough for a man to say But we would never agree if we talked all night Things are gettin' heavy, I'm traveling light Goodbye jaded lover you undercover queen for a day And I can see you are an angel whose wings just won't unfold Tune up your harp, polish your old halo And the only kind of man that you ever wanted Was one that you knew you'd never hold very long Sittin' there cryin' like I'm the first one to go You keep sittin' there cryin' like I'm the first one to go Think about it darlin'
