Hey, hey, Elizabeth
Your voice sounds kind of stressed
Are you coming into town?
Did Christmas get you down?
Hey Elizabeth
You know I’m here for you
Tell me what you’re going through
Is your boyfriend still around?
Close the door and speak out loud, Elizabeth
You don’t need to finish what you start
I can read the shorthand of your heart
I know where your thoughts are going
I know without even knowing.
Let me help you through
It always comes back to me and you,
Hey,Elizabeth
Don’t let him talk to you that way
You know he’s never gonna change
Hey, Hey Elizabeth
For three long years you did your best
Tried everything you know
This year let him go
Oh, Elizabeth
Don’t see the other side
Don’t wait until you change your mind
Don’t even leave a note
There’s nothing left to sugar coat, Elizabeth
You don’t need to finish what you start
I can read the shorthand of your heart
I know where your thoughts are going
I know without even knowing, yeah
I’ve been in your place
It was me and you and my suitcase, Elizabeth
Hey,Elizabeth
Don’t let him talk to you that way
You know he’s never gonna change
You don’t have to stay, hang on
Pack a bag, don’t need to shower
I’ll pick you up in about an hour
I’ll make sloppy Joes
You got more choices than you know, Elizabeth
