I Better Be Quiet Now - Lyrics by Elliott Smith


Lyrics
Wish you gave me a number
Wish I could call you today,
Just to hear a voice.I got a long way to go
Getting further away.
If I didn't know the difference,
Living alone would probably be ok.
It wouldn't be lonely.I got a long way to go
Getting further away.A lot of hours to occupy it was easy
When I didn't know you yet,
Things I'd have to forget.
But I better be quiet now,I'm tired of wasting my breath
Carrying on, getting upset.
Maybe I have a problem,
But thats not what I wanted to say.I prefer to say nothing.I got a long way to go
Getting further away.
Had a dream as an army man with an order
Just to march in my place
But a dead enemy
Screams in my face
But I better be quiet now,I'm tired of wasting my breath
Carrying on, not over it yet.
Wish I knew what you were doing.
Why you want to do it this way.
So I can't go the distance,I got a long way to go,I'm getting further away.I got a long way to go
Getting further away.
