Get Out of Town lyrics

Verse:

The farce was ended,

The curtain drawn,

And I at least pretended

That love was dead and gone.

But not from nowhere

You come to me as before,

To take my heart

And break my heart

Once more.

Refrain:

Get out of town,

Before it's too late, my love,

Get out of town,

Be good to me, please.

Why wish me harm?

Why not retire to a farm

And be contented to charm

The birds off the trees?

Just disappear

I care for you much too much,

And when you are near,

Close to me, dear,

We touch too much.

The thrill when we meet

Is so bitter-sweet

That, darling, it's getting me down,

So on your mark, get set,

Get out of town.
