You'd better go each moment that you linger
Makes me forget his ring is on my finger
We love each other but I'm his so we must draw the line
You'd better go before I change my mind
You'd better go for I'm afraid your charms
Will shatter my resistance and I'll end up in your arms
He loves me so and dear you know I hate to be unkind
You'd better go before I change my mind
[ guitar ]
To keep you here would thrill me be unmeasured
But we're not always free to do the things that bring us pleasure
He loves me so and dear you know we'd hate ourselves in time
You'd better go before I change my mind
