I lost the plot line

Somewhere

Between summer and fall

You stopped comin’ home at all

The plot slowed to a crawl

It took no time

To feel the chill in the air

Knowing you didn’t care

At all for me


Somewhere I lost the plot line

Of this romantic comedy

Now I’m hoping you will see

The end has come


The last real has played

there’s only room for the maid

The guy pushin’ that big floor sweep

That cleans broken hearts off the streets

The ones nobody wants to keep

Anymore




Somewhere

between a warm sunset

And my dreams it seems

you had the same dream too but

this time nobody’s coming to

your rescue




Somewhere I lost the plot line

Of this romantic comedy

And the last line in the show

It’s time to go

It’s time to go
