Here I am late again for the last time and like I promised I just told her goodbye

Please believe me for this time it's really over and darling you know I wouldn't lie

I had to let her down easy as slow as I could after all she's got feelings too

But it took a little longer than I thought it would

Oh but this time she knows we're really through

She wanted to hold me forever and this lipstick shows her final try

And these tears on my shoulders have proved that she failed

And darling you know I wouldn't lie

[ steel ]

Didn't I come and tell you about her how temptation lured she and I

But I know it was only fascination and darling you know I wouldn't lie

I had to let her down easy as slow as I could after all she's got feelings too

But it took a little longer than I thought it would

But now she knows we're really through

Now she wanted to hold me forever and this lipstick shows her final try

Please believe me for this time it's really over and darling you know I wouldn't lie

And darling you know I wouldn't lie
