Please, Lillianne
Please come home today
Don't make me wait too long
Can't make it clear
But all I want to say's
I'm a wreck since the day you've gone
I've tried everything to get the message through
But it doesn't seem to matter what I do
Please, Lillianne
Hear me when I say
I must make it understood
I've drank and smoked and paced the floors all day
But it don't do a lick of good
Can't comprehend
And I'm at my wits' end
But you know I'm not one to beg
I'm hardly astute
But I still can't compute
Your motives are too hard to peg
I feel like a shadow of the man I used to be
Does it even seem to faze you that you broke the heart in me?
I don't know how much longer I can hold on for
Amusing as it seems, I must implore
Please, Lillianne
Hear me when I say
I must make it understood
Oh, please, Lillianne
Since you went away
It's not doing me any good
Still can't believe
That you'd pack up and leave
Stranding me here behind
You weren't convinced
By the words that I minced
Trying in vain just to change your mind
I don't think I'll last another second here alone
Don't you ever stop and wonder
How I'll get by on my own?
Please, Lillianne
Hear me when I say
I must make it understood
I drink and smoke and pace the floors all day
And it's not doing me any good
Please, Lillianne
Please come home today
It's lonely without you here
Oh, please, Lillianne
Since you went away
I'm useless with you, dear
