Lyrics by Shoshanna Schneider. Music by the Schneiders. c) 1979
I heard that you were skipping town
In a couple of days,
And I've been chipping at these heartstrings
To see if they could still break
(And sister, they can still break!)
I'm overcome with confusion,
I'm overwrought with regret,
I wonder if I'm to blame and if I'm not
I'm sorry anyway
So don't you dare run away from me.
They say
The Big Guy gives then he taketh away
They say
The Big Sky's clear but all I'm seeing is grey
(And sister, they are sure grey!)
I'm overrun with contrition,
I'm understating my worth,
I wonder if I'm insane and if I'm not
I'm sorry anyway.
Don't you dare run away from me.
To think I built a life around our trust?
That would be absurd!
But if I said it never mattered,
Well don't believe a word.
I'm overzealous and hasty,
I'm overworked and underpaid,
I wonder if I'm to blame and if I'm not
I'm sorry.
Don't you dare run away from me.
I heard that you were skipping town.
