All along the Western Plains the lions lick their teeth 
with a look in their eyes.
The one you're giving me tonight.
And all along the country side the morning doves will 
call.
For the sun will soon come and wake them all
with a brand new start.
A world apart from us.
But each time you drop a line it seems you're lying 
through your teeth.
Stop wasting all my time.
I've only got an hour to kill, lets not waste it all 
with talking.
We've only got tonight.
All along the New York strip the people wait and watch 
for the change of the light.
These little rest stops from their lives.
All along suburban streets the kids come out to play
and take advantage of the fact that there's no rain 
today.
But how different things become when night's the only 
time of day you're up.
But each time you drop a line it seems you're lying 
through your teeth.
Stop wasting all my time.
I've only got an hour to kill, lets not waste it all 
with talking.
We've only got tonight.
Just stop.
Stop blaming all your flaws on God and acting bashful 
when we both know you're not.
You act surprised when you look up at the clock. “Oh 
it's so late!”
Â…Like you forgotÂ…
Just stop.
Stop playing like you care so much when you know 
neither of us care to keep in touch.
You're just like me, life's got you jaded on love.
Oh, we both don't care enough.
