"No joke," she says "I'll leave you,
I'd never think to treat you like this
I can't believe it
I'll give you 3 more
chances then I'm gone for good"

She is reaching outer limits with him
He treads thin ice so damn thin that he can sense the water at his feet.
At the start he was a prince who brought gifts wrapped and well thought, His lips needed no words, kisses told her everything
She's wearing his
favorite shirt she owns
yet still she knows

"No joke," she says "I'll leave you,
I'd never think to treat you like this
I can't believe it
I'll give you 3 more
chances then I'm gone for good"

He swears he's really worth it,
but has trouble showing it
This routine is over
as he says to her
it hits her like a ton of bricks

Another weekend in the transit station eyes glue to hands
of the rushing clocks that won't wait for just anyone

She awaits the R2 patiently with gifts clinched under arms,
for her lover that she misses oh so much right now

He's wearing her
favorite shirt he owns
yet still she cries
(he forgets it)

"No joke," she says "I'll leave you,
I'd never think to treat you like this
I can't believe it
I'll give you 3 more
chances then I'm gone for good"

He swears he's really worth it,
but has trouble showing it
This routine is over
as he says to her
it hits her like a ton of bricks

Friday train rides, sitting next to suit and ties to work
Six long hours cramped and crowded
Her regrets can't quite be counted on both of her hands,
but count on her goodbyes

"No joke," she says "I'll leave you,
I'd never think to treat you like this
I can't believe it
I'll give you 3 more
chances then I'm gone for good"

He swears he's really worth it,
but has trouble showing it
This routine is over
as he says to her
it hits her like a ton of bricks

"No joke," she says "I'll leave you,
I'd never think to treat you like this
I can't believe it
I'll give you 3 more
chances then I'm gone for good"

He swears he's really worth it,
