Edit By: 216.73.216.197

(mary chapin carpenter)

A few more cigarettes now honey
One more jolt of joe
A couple hours past new york city
A few more turnpike tolls
One more minute away from you
Is a minute that lasts too long
When I get back were gonna lock the door baby
And disconnect the phone
We could use a week to get reacquainted
Some time to feel it out
But leave your small talk back at home baby
This aint what thats about

Just read my lips
Yes I think you can
Just read my lips
And youll understand

Well I can see it in your eyes now honey
cause Ive seen it in myself
Youve got a few old scars thats ancient history baby
That was someone else
Well I could tell you that youre only human
That youre right to be afraid
But how can you pull back on me now
Dont you make that big mistake
Well you could give it up
Or you could just give in
Now its a choice between the two
But I werent born no yesterday baby
I wasnt born a fool

Just read my lips
Yes I think you can
Just read my lips
And youll understand

Just read my lips
And you can read my mind
Just read my lips
Just one more time

This aint no game of cat and mouse
It aint no truth or dare
I aint got 20 questions for you
Just one thing to declare

Just read my lips
Yes I think you can
Just read my lips
And youll understand

Just read my lips
And you can read my mind
Just read my lips
Just one more time
