With Pen In Hand

(アルバム： White Fences And Evergreen Trees - 1968)

With pen in hand you signed your name
Today at five I'll be on that train
And you'll be free and I will be alone so alone
If you think we can find the love we once knew

If you think I can't make everything up to you
Then I'll be gone and you'll be on your own you'll be on your own

Can you take good care of Danny
Can you take him to school everyday
Can you teach him how to catch a fish
And keep all those bullies away hear what I say

Can you teach him how to whistle a tune
Can you tell him about the man in the moon
If you can do these things then maybe he won't miss me
Maybe he won't miss me

And tonight as you lay in that big lonely bed
And you look at the pillow where I lay my head
And with your heart on fire will you have no desire to kiss me
And to hold me

If you can forget the good times we had
If you think that the good times don't outweigh the bad
Then sign your name and I'll be on my way
I'll be on my way
