I don’t want to hurt your feelings
But, I need to be alone
I can’t keep pretending
I feel better when you’re gone.
What we have’s not working
We are simply worlds apart
Don’t want to keep on trying
I don’t want to break your heart.
So little commonality
Content to watch TV
No interest in the opera
Or what matters most to me.
You’re a kind and gentle person
Need to find someone who cares
Me hanging on is just not right
It simply isn’t fair.
We’ve become a habit
Every Saturday we meet
Go out and see a movie
Or sit home and watch TV.
I read, I’m educated
Nothing you say interests me
I get bored when you talk to me
I begin to fall asleep.
Don’t want to be judgmental
I guess I am just a snob
But, I am feeling stagnant
And embarrassed by your job.
You make a decent living
Told me you sell used cars
Never went to college
Haven’t gotten very far.
My friends ask me about you
I don’t want to tell the truth
I’m embarrassed, I admit it
This is so unfair to you.
Before going any further
Let’s resign to just be friends
Let’s stop fooling one another
We both know this has to end.
