Can a thing be erased? Why do you linger? You're out of place I think we should sell our home and move up to Maine On a inlet that looks toward the bay I'll wear my best suit today I'll lend my shoulder. I'll cut the cake But remember that I can't be swayed It's just courtesy What can I say? I don't know what to say. I'm not the same. You took my heart with you when you left I would follow you but something tells me that I can't At night you're out in the street Hiding in shadows, rustling trees Did you want me to save you a seat? Well that's a whole lot to ask of me Come on now, don't be so mean I am the meanest; you don't have to complete I don't have to clench my fists or bare my teeth You'll just hurt yourself What can I say? I don't know what to say. I'm not the same. You took my heart with you when you left I would follow you but something tells me that I can't So I'm buying a house in Maine Where the ground takes May to thaw out And Canada's thirty minute drive And I'm putting you away And I'll keep you out of sight, love And we both know that I'm not going to write But know that I will figure you sometimes What can I say? I don't know what to say. I'm not the same. You took my heart with you when you left I would follow you but something tells me that I can't. I would follow you but I'm simply not the same. And tomorrow I am moving up to Maine
