Here I am late again for the last time
Like I promised, I just told her goodbye
Believe me, for this time it's really over
And darling, you know I wouldn't lie
Didn't I come and tell you about her
How temptation lured she and I
Now I know it was only fascination
And darling, you know I wouldn't lie
I had to let her down easy, as slow as I could
For after all she's got feelings too
But it took a little longer than I thought it would
This time she knows we're really through
She wanted to hold me forever
And this lipstick shows her final try
And these tears on my shoulder are proof that she failed
And darling, you know I wouldn't lie
And darling, you know I wouldn't lie
