In due time, if I keep myself intact,
I could wave to you through the window as I drove past.
Made a good impression, and my dear, I've learned my lesson.
So I'll flee before that admiration will likely pass.
And for years to come in the mornings
You may think I'm the best thing that you almost had.
In due time, if I gain some self-respect,
I could smile upon the day that we first met.
But I made some swift revisions,
Through whiskey-blurred visions.
And I promised not to ever, ever look back.
And for years to come in the mornings
You may think I'm the best thing that you almost had.
Come to think of it, oh, how I would like to see you now.
But I couldn't face the day when you would say,
"My dear, I am checking out."
