Sweet Things

Sweet things that you’d never say,

Sweet things that you’d never say,

    have driven me away.

I wonder how or why I remained.

So long.  Save your breath.

I’m sure you would any way.  And you can . . .

   blame it on sweet things you’d never say. 

Sweet things that you’d never do,

Sweet things that you’d never do,

    my crying days are through.

I’ve seen the light at night

and I don’t like the view.

So my leaving really shouldn’t surprise you.   

   And you can . . .

blame it on sweet things you’d never do.

     Sweet things that you’d never say,

     have driven me away.

     But my crying days are through. 

     Blame it on those . . .

     sweet things you’d never do. 

Sweet things that you’d never say,

Sweet things that you’d never say,

    have driven me away.

I wonder how or why I ever stayed.

So long.  Save your breath.

I’m sure you would any way.  And you can . . .

   blame it on sweet things you’d never say.
