Ex-Lover
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Turn off the music
Turn up the light
Go put your shoes on
While I open the door
You'll shake my hand as I wish you good-night
And find myself lonely once more
Oh well what the hell
Some other evening, some other time
It's time for a bottle and a moment of silence
For another ex lover of mine
You weren't the first one God knows there've been more
Remember a few nights, forgotten the rest
The day that I met you I stopped keepin' score
Pretending that you were the best
Oh well what the hell
Some other evening, some other time
It's time for a bottle and a moment of silence
For another ex lover of mine
I've looked for perfection in ev'ry hotel room
Polite desperation clouds all that I say
My life ends up reading like a cheap dime story novel
Romance in the moonlight
Disappears with the day
But just like a good man, I still keep on searching
For someone to love me, a hand for my hand
I keep on believing that our love has changed
And I'll be on my feet when I land
Oh well what the hell
Some other evening, some other time
It's time for a bottle and a moment of silence
For another ex lover of mine
