"With Pen In Hand" lyrics

With Pen In Hand

With pen
In hand
You signed your name
Today
At five
I'll be on that train
And you'll be free
And I will be
Alone
So alone

If you think
We can't
Find the love we once knew
If you think
I can't
Make everything up to you
Then I'll be gone
And you'll be on
Your own
You'll be on your own

Can you take
Good care
Of Johnny?
Can you take him
To school
Everyday?
Can you teach him how
To catch a fish
And keep all those bullys away?
Hear what I say?

Can you teach
Him how
To whistle a tune?
Can you tell him
About
The Man in the Moon?
If you can do these things
Then maybe he
Won't miss me
Maybe he won't miss me

And tonight
As you lay
In that big lonely bed
Can you look
At the pillow
Where I laid my head
And with your heart on fire
Will you have no desire
To kiss me
And to hold me?

And if you
Can forget
The good times we had
If you think
That the good times
Don't outweigh the bad
Then sign your name
And I'll be on
My way
I'll be on my way
