On that fateful night That's when you said to me A thing that I now realize You knew I would not believe Now, I knew what you thought of me But only now I see How small a chance I stood against Your firm causality Don't play the guitar Auf wiedersehen Don't play the guitar for me I know that when you're alone again The urge may consume your being But don't play the guitar Auf wiedersehen This is where I draw the line If you ever want to see me again You'll leave the guitar behind
