Nowhere Slow

I’ll be holding hands
With the remote control tonight
Try to find a movie that’ll make me cry
Against my better judgement
I’ll be hoping that you might
Come around and try to make things right
I’ll bet you’ll be sorting out
Your desk-drawers this evening
Anything to keep me off your mind
You are not the kind
That will lay staring at the ceiling
You’re not gonna wonder why I’m leaving
We were always good at breaking up
Now it seems we lost the touch
When it comes to making up
I don’t know how that happened
— well I guess
We just started loving each other less
Darling I’ll miss you nonetheless
I’l be waking up
Clutching your pillow in the morning
— better put on Billie Holiday real loud
Try to remind myself
It’s me that does the leaving
We were going nowhere — real slow
We were always good at breaking up
Now it seems we lost the touch
When it comes to making up
We’ve been getting far too good at
Breaking up
But it seems we lost the touch
When it comes to making up
Don’t know how that happened
— well I guess
We just started loving each other less
Darling I’ll miss you nonetheless
