앨범 : Come Through For Yo...

There's a look on her face
She's starting to master
*As* she carefully closes the door
She's been coming home late
With pre-packaged answers
To questions she tries to avoid
Now she's talking too fast
And I just have to ask
Baby what's all the cloak and dagger for
Okay here's the truth
I ran out of gas
And I didn't call cause I thought you'd be mad
So I started to walk
Took an hour and a half
To get off that highway and fill up that can
I was hoping that you'd understand
She's getting good with the lies
So good that you'd wonder
If the rabbit in the hat tricks for real
She turns water into wine
And I'd almost believe her
If her eyes just for once could keep still
Now my patience wears thin
Cause she's late once again
Honey tell me what delayed you this time
Okay here's the truth
It's gonna sound kind of strange
But I took a new way home from work for a change
It started out fine
Til I got to Route 9
Went an hour the wrong way before I realized
I'm sorry I ruined all your plans
I was hoping that you'd *under-*
*-Standing* there watching her secretly talking
It is just about all I can bear
Now I know why she's been wearing
More Make-up and caring
So much about changing her hair
The telephone vibrates on the table again
Another damn private call coming through
And now she's visibly shaking
And I just feel like taking that phone
Throwing it clear across the room
She answers “hello”
A mans voice I don't know
Says “it's time that you tell him the truth”
Now I can't take this no more
Honey I'm out the door
No, I won't relax
I've got my suitcase all packed
*But* what she said next stopped me dead in my tracks
Okay here's the truth
It's not what you think
The man that you heard is head of oncology
I'm sorry I lied
To you all of those times
I didn't know how to tell you
I might not survive
Okay there's the truth
I've got six months to live
Only wanted what's best for you and the kids
I promise I'll fight
With all of my might
But if I lose this battle
I lived a good life
So baby just please hold my hand
And tell me that you understand
