Better Be Quiet Now - Elliott Smith

作词：Elliott Smith

作曲：Elliott Smith

Wish you gave me your number

Wish I could call you today

just to hear a voice

I got a long way to go

I'm getting further away

If I didn't know the difference

living alone'd probably be ok

It wouldn't be lonely

I got a long way to go

I'm getting further away

A lot of hours to occupy

it was easy when I didn't know you yet

Things I'd have to forget

But I better be quiet now

I'm tired of wasting my breath

Carrying on and getting upset

Maybe I got a problem

but that's not what I wanted to say

I'd prefer to say nothing

I got a long way to go

I'm getting further away

Had a dream as an army man with an order

just to march in my place

While a dead enemy screams in my face

But I better be quiet now

I'm tired of wasting my breath

Carrying on not over it yet

Wish I knew what you're doing

And why you want to do it this way

so I can't go the distance

I got a long way to go

I'm getting further away

I got a long way to go

I'm getting further away
