The End of a Love Affair

Lyrics

[Intro] Do they know, do they care, that it's only That I'm lonely, and low as can be? And the smile on my face isn't really a smile at all [Verse 1] So I walk a little too fast And I drive a little too fast And I'm reckless, it's true But what else can you do At the end of a love affair? [Verse 2] So, I talk a little too much And I laugh a little too much And my voice is too loud When I'm out in a crowd So that people are apt to stare [Bridge] Do they know, do they care, that it's only That I'm lonely, and low as can be? And the smile on my face isn't really a smile at all [Verse 3] So, I smoke a little too much And I joke a little too much And the tunes I request Are not always the best But the ones where the trumpets blare [Outro] So, I go at a maddening pace And I pretend that it's taking her place But what else can you do at the end of a love affair?
