Quittin' Time

(album: Blue Skies Again - 1987)

Is there anything left between us as lovers
Any reason at all for holding on
How long must we go on hurting each other
When love is gone, it's gone

So many times we've tried talking it over
You always have your side, I've always got mine
All the talking in the world can't bring us closer
And we know in our minds it's quitting time

Being with you used to be so easy
Now we're just in each others way
We make small talk like two lonely people
With nothing left to say

All we can do is call it a day
'Cause we sure can't call it love
We kept trying to give it time
Now it's time to give it up

If I thought it would make the least bit of difference
I could go on ignoring the signs
We ain't gonna win we're just going the distance
And that's where I draw the line, it's quitting time

Girl, I've made up my mind
It's quitting time
