Just So You Know

You swore that you loved me not so long ago

But I'm starting to wonder if that was really so

And maybe you sort of even lied to me

But I was too dense and could not see

Now I don't know, and I might be wrong

But I think you knew that all along

Old friends come and visit me off and on

And wonder out loud where you could have gone

But friends they come, and friends they go

I just laugh and tell them that I don't know

Although you ran off with all that I had

I wasn't really feeling all that bad

Since lately I noticed you were getting fat

But I was too nice to tell you that

And those pots and pans that you also took

Could come in handy if you ever learn to cook

And the TV you know, is no longer on

Both day and night since you have been gone

This peace and quiet suits me just fine

So I thought that maybe I would drop you a line

I layed awake all through the night

Just deciding what I would write

And if it woud not be asking too much

Drop me a line and keep in touch
