A sharp kick in the head, was all she said
Stop talking sideways, was all she said
A smart move into fortune, was all she said
A smart move into fortune, seemed over our head
Thank you for the good time, was all she said
Black rose in my pocket, was all she left

If I sit down and listen to the radio
These are words that I've heard before

Heaven knows, what will become of us
I wouldn't say it, that's for sure

(And she went) Sharp kick in the head
(Oh no) Was all she said
(She demands) Stop talking sideways
(Oh no) was all she said
(And she went) Smart move into fortune
(I still know) went over our heads
(And she knows) The black rose in my pocket
(Back there) is all but dead

Well I sit down and listen to the radio
And I don't believe these words are true
Heaven knows, what will become of us
You always said it just takes two
And she waits, heart and body and soul
Now I know it's time to let her go
But she waits until I'm almost there
Then she says that she had never cared

Still she waits in heart and body and soul
And I know this time I won't let go
But she waits until I'm almost there
Then she says that she has never cared

And I wait in heart and body and soul
And I know she'll never let me go
But I wait until she's almost there
And I ask her just to say she cared
But she waits in heart and body and soul
And I know this time she'll let me go
And I wait until I'm almost there
Then I tell myself she didn't care
