[Chorus]
Maybe we lost our place
And all I need to say is
"Come and find me like an old crease in the page"
I'm figuring it's too late
But I'll ask you just the same
What it pays to keep yourself so far away
You keep yourself so far away

[Verse]
Don't be long, don't be long
Every time I see you I still hear my favorite song play on and on
Don't be long, don't be long
Because if there's any part of this that you still need, I need you now to prove me wrong

[Chorus]
Maybe we lost our place
And all I need to say is
"Come and find me like an old crease in the page"
I'm figuring it's too late
But I'll ask you just the same
What it pays to keep yourself so far away
You keep yourself so far away

[Verse]
Don't be long, don't be long
Every time I see you I still hear my favorite song play on and on
Don't be long, don't be long
Because if there's any part of this that you still need, I need you now to prove me wrong

[Outro]
Don't be long, don't be long
'Cause every time I see you I still hear my favorite song play on and on
Don't be long, don't be long
'Cause every time I see you I still hear my favorite song play on and on
And even through the muck and the mire (Don't be long, don't be long)
I still love you like a house on fire (need you now to prove me wrong)
