Lyrics

With pen in hand you signed your name today at five I'll be on that train
And you'll be free and I will be alone oh so alone
If you think we can't find the love we once knew
If you think I can make everything up to you
Then I'll be gone and you'll be on your own you'll be on your own
Can you take good care of jenny can you take her to school everyday
Can you teach her how to play all the games that little girls play
Now hear what I say
Can you teach her how to roll up her hair
Can you make sure each night she says her prayer
If you can do all these things then maybe she won't miss me
Maybe she won't miss me
And tonight as you lay in that big lonely bed
And you look at the pillow where I laid my head
With your heart on fire will you have no desire to hold me and to kiss me
And if you can forget the good times we've had
If you don't think our good times outweigh the bad
Well then sign your name and I'll be on my way yes I'll be on my way hmm
