End Of A Love Affair-Wes Montgomery

The End of a Love Affair - Redding
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
It 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
I pretend that it's taking her place
But what else can you do
At the end of a love affair?
So I smoke a little too much
And I drink a little too much
And the tunes I request
Aren't 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?
