I have to sit you down
|
Let me tell you what itĄ¯s all about
|
Cause IĄ¯ve been carrying a torch around
|
And IĄ¯ve forgotten how to snuff it out
|
|
And you have been unkind
|
And thatĄ¯s a matter I cannot ignore
|
You have to skirt around the truth sometimes
|
But itĄ¯s time I told you what I came here for
|
|
To thank you for all the small favors
|
IĄ¯m thinkinĄ¯ now I hope it doesnĄ¯t change us
|
And take us to a time when we were strangers
|
In a two-station town
|
You canĄ¯t get the train to slow down
|
|
Small favors
|
Oh to you as sure as she was honest
|
And now do you remember when you promised
|
To forgive me someday
|
The debts that I canĄ¯t repay
|
The debts that I canĄ¯t repay
|
|
And I cannot forget
|
You looked at me as if IĄ¯d lost a bet
|
And I hadnĄ¯t opened up my big mouth yet
|
And I thought of crawling back into the plane
|
|
And though itĄ¯s sad to tell
|
I still remember how the dry-eye felt
|
Across the curtains in the cheap hotel
|
Lit-up dust clouds in the window pane
|
|
And I thank you for all the small favors
|
IĄ¯m thinkinĄ¯ now I hope it doesnĄ¯t change us
|
And take us to a time when we were strangers
|
In a two-station town
|
You canĄ¯t get the train to slow down
|
|
Small favors
|
IĄ¯m thinkinĄ¯ now I hope it doesnĄ¯t change us
|
And take us to a time when we were strangers
|
In a two-station town
|
You canĄ¯t get the train to slow down
|
|
Small favors
|
Oh to you as sure as she was honest
|
Now do you remember when you promised
|
Forgive me someday
|
The debts that I canĄ¯t repay
|
The debts that I canĄ¯t repay
|
The debts that I canĄ¯t repay
|
