I heard you calling him again
And I just had to listen in
I can't believe the things I heard you say
Pardon me, if I'm standing in your way
You slip away most every night
And I know who your holding tight
A man I called a friend just yesterday
Pardon me, if I'm standing in your way
I've heard you whisper softly
That I would never know
You said the same three words you said
To me not long ago
It's over now, but I can't say goodbye
I must hold on to you, at least I have to try
I never thought I'd ever see this day
Pardon me, if I'm standing in your way.
