This Just Ain't No Good Day For Leaving

(album: Love In The Hot Afternoon - 1975)

The handle on my suitcase is coming off again
And the cleaners only sent back half my things
The forecast of the weather says we're in for heavy rain
And you know I don't like driving in the rain
I wish the sun was shining I'd be on the road right now
With nothing but a good time on my mind
I hope that you don't think that you're the reason I'm still here
Or think that love is putting off goodbye

This just ain't no good day for leaving
Against my wants and wishes I guess I'll have to stay
This just ain't no good day for leaving
If it's alright with you I think I'll wait
(Think I'll wait think I'll wait think I'll wait)

Today my eyes are misty and I'm all choked up inside
It's funny how a cold can make you cry
Jimmy called and said he found my lighter in his car
Can I help it if he can't come by till five
Just because I don't let on how much my heart has changed
Don't think that I can't walk right out that door
If I still cared for you I'd find a way to stall for time
It's a good thing I don't love you anymore

This just ain't no good day for leaving
Against my wants and wishes I guess I'll have to stay
This just ain't no good day for leaving
If it's alright with you I think I'll wait
(Think I'll wait think I'll wait)
Just think I'll wait
