You said you'd love me till the cows come home
Well I'm hoping that they all go blind
Get lost out on some dirt back road
And just hang around for someone else to find
You said you'd love me till the end of time
So I'm staring at that clock on the wall
Every day I give that thing a wind
And pretend that I ain't waitin' on your call
Oh why do I gotta do all the silly things I do
Just trying to keep this love alive
Why does it gotta be so damn hard for me
Just don't say you love me till the day you die
You said you'd love me till the trains don't run
So I'm calling up that old porter man
I gotta make that train roll on
Well he might not but I sure give a damn
Oh why do I gotta do all the silly things I do
Just trying to keep this love alive
Why does it gotta be so damn hard for me
Just don't say you love me till the day you die
Oh why do I gotta do all the silly things I do
Just trying to keep this love alive
Why does it gotta be so damn hard for me
Just don't say you love me till the day you die
The day you die
