B:-----------------------------------
maybe different but remember
winters warm where you and i kissing
whiskey by the fire
with the snow outside
and when the summer comes
in the river
swims at midnight
shiver cold
touch the bottom
starry night
with muddy toes
stay or leave
i want you not to go
but you should
it was good as good...goes
stay or leave
i want you not to go
but you did
wake up naked drinking coffee
making plans to change the world
while the world is changing us
it was good good love
you used to laugh under the covers
maybe not so often now
but the way i used to laugh with you
was loud and hard
stay or leave
i want you not to go
but you should
it was good as good...goes
stay or leave
i want you not to go
but you did
so what to do
with the rest of the day's afternoon
hey isn't it strange how we change
everything we played
did i do all that i should
that i coulda done
remember we used to dance
and everyone wanted to be you and me
i want to be too
what day is this
besides the day you left me
what day is this
besides the day you went
so what to do
with the rest of the day's afternoon
hey well isn't it strange how we change
everything we did
did i do all that i could
remember we used to dance
and everyone wanted to be you and me
i want to be too
what day is this
besides the day you went babe
what day is this
