lyrics

​Pardon me
Kissing you like I'm afraid
But I know I'm being played with
And you'll leave me when you get the chance

Off you'll go
In the darkness of the night
Like a bird in freedom's flight
You're thinking only of deliverance

Close your eyes
And pretend that you are me
See how empty it can be
Making love if love's not really there

Watch me go
Watch me walk away alone
As your clothing comes undone
And you pull the ribbons from your hair

Pardon me
