Pardon Me - Larry Norman

Pardon me, kissing you like I’m afraid

But I know when I’m being played with

And you’ll leave me when you get the chance

Off you’ll go, in the darkness of the night

Like a bird in freedom’s flight

You’re thinking only of deliverance

Close your eyes, and pretend that you are me

See how empty it can be

Making love if love’s not really there

Watch me go, watch me walk away alone

As your clothing comes undone

And you pull the ribbon from your hair
