No Place Else to Go

(Shel Silverstein)



The sun goes down and you come around with evening

Saying that you love ah but I know

That it really isn't tenderness you're feelin'

You're here cause you've got no place else to go.



You'll ask how I've been doin' and you'll smile that same old smile

You'll touch my cheek and turn the lights down low

We'll kiss and I'll forget for just a while

That you're here cause you've got no place else to go.



Ah, no place else to go

And no place else to be

No one else to take you in

But good old easy me.



When morning comes I tell myself I'll never

Do this again but deep iseide I know

I'm here because I'm bound to you forever

And you're here 'cause you've got no place else to go.

I'm here because I'm bound to you forever

And you're here 'cause you've got no place else to go...
