Lazy Lady
Michael Nesmith

There were so many things that I should have said
When I finally said goodbye
But the gist of things to come showed me nothing could be done
To save a love that already died
And yet still it breaks my heart to have to walk away
In the middle of such staggering pain
I would like to press you close and offer you my coat
As shelter from the gathering rain
But that would just compound the hurt that comes with such moments
And make it all more difficult to bear
So I'll walk away and leave you alone
To seek comfort from the things you know are real
But don't let my silence hide the tenderness inside
That memories of you will make me feel

And so I'll walk away and leave you alone
To seek comfort from the things you know are real
But don't let my silence hide the tenderness inside
That memories of you will make me feel
Please don't let my silence hide the tenderness inside
That memories of you will make me feel
