[Verse 1]

So what is it about me?

Hey, what am I supposed to say?

You could make my day, or you could make a picture

Of the times we had

You might get sad

You might get rich someday

If you do, I might get mad

Remembering that month I spent

You said you were my only friend


[Chorus 1]

So now be a dear and leave me alone

Don't come by or call up my phone

And if there is somewhere that you need to be

Don't make it here with me


[Verse 2]

Don't try to clean the carpet stain

You don't have to close that creaky gate

Hey, you'll get along just fine

You might even make a song

Or find someone

To hang those troubles on

On and on in my memory

Hey, wait, you're fading out

About the way

You faded in

Remind me of your name again


[Chorus 2]

And then be a dear and leave me alone

Don't come by or tie up my phone

If there's somewhere that you need to be

Don't worry about me


[Guitar solo]


[Bridge]

Hey, oh

Remind me of your name again


[Chorus 3]

And then be a dear and leave me alone

Don't come by or call up my phone

And if there is somewhere that you need to be

Try not being here with me

I wish that I knew you when I was

A patient sort of guy

But you're fading

You might be someone

That I used to know


[Outro]

Hey

Hey

Hey

Hey


[Guitar solo]
