I don’t want to be your stepping stone
taken for granted and left alone
I don’t want to be your «I remember him»
to be the man before the man that you let in
I tell you I can’t even get through the 4th of July
without thinking who left and when and why
without once at least I stopped and laughed
about you in nothing but that Uncle Sam hat
Yeah, it’s a sad and lonely day
to come so close and walk away
don’t take it hard, we missed it by a mile
when you think of me — smile
(that's all you gotta do)
Baby, I’m amazed that we got so far
you with your no flying and me with my no cars
now that it’s all over I can see the light
It’s pretty god damn funny in heinsite (= hindsight)
Yeah, it’s a sad and lonely day
to come so close and walk away
don’t take it hard, we missed it by a mile
when you think about me baby, when you think of me — you just smile
Oh, smile, babe, when you think of me baby
(Instrumental)
Yeah, it’s a sad and lonely day
to come so close and walk away
no baby, don’t take it hard, we missed it by a mile
when you think about me baby, when you think of me — you just smile
that’s all you gotta do
when you think about me baby, just smile
(that's right)
