By the Way

By the way did I hear you say

If some night I seem too lonely



You would stay

Oh and by the way

Have I told you yet that only recently

He moved out on me

Took the towels we stole

From some motel in Tennessee

He was gone long before he really left

I knew it ...



By the way he began to say:

Love takes time, I'm in a hurry



Anyway that's all yesterday

Let's get back to us

Why worry?

If you try calling by and by

Oh, and by the way, I thought I mentioned

You can't stay...



Leave the lights...

You don't look a thing like he did



And it's time to play

It's another day

Why can't we make love fall

By the way?
