The End of a Love Affair lyrics

So I walk a little too fast and I drive a little too fast

And I'm reckless, it's true, but what else can you do

At the end of a love affair?

So I talk a little too much and I laugh a little too much

And my voice is too loud when I'm out in a crowd

So that people are apt to stare

Do they know, do they care, that it's only

That I'm lonely and low as can be?

And the smile on my face isn't really a smile at all

So I smoke a little too much and I drink a little too much

And the tunes I request are not always the best

But the ones where the trumpets blare

So I go at a maddening pace

And I pretend that it's taking her place

But what else can you do at the end of a love affair?
