Lyrics
Maybe it’s just about time I told you I’m all through with you
But just about the time I start to tell you I start feeling blue
And just about then I lose my nerve and wait another day or two
‘Cause just about the time I think it’s over I start missing you
It’s just about time I had my sayin’ I told you a thing or two
It’s just about time I paid you back you treat me like you do
But just about the time I get the nerve I can’t seem to carry through
‘Cause just about then an empty feelin’ reminds me I miss you
(Like to find somebody new I could just get you)
It’s just about time I let you know I’ve had my fill of you
But just about the time I think about goin’ I start missin’ you
I’d like to go find another love that’ll never be untrue
But just about the time I think about leavin’ I start missin’ you
(Havin’ a hard time feelin’ blue tryin’ to get over you)
