Let me read those things for which I am thankful   My father my mother my family essential   The fact that there’s water on top of this planet   The opportunity for me to walk in it   ???   And the ability to tell you what I want to   Find me a gift that's through my closest acquaintance   That kid has so many new things   They know who this one is   And I wish that they do   So I could stay   With them      Did I tell you I don’t think this will work out   That I love you but I’m wanting something else   Something close to me that I cannot forgive   Something far away that I’d like to end with      I’d like to end it with a music cliché   Say in a phone call that it's not you it's me   Then I could hang up and just put you away   In some music box that the swiss army plays   Since it’s a holiday I’ll leave you alone   Dial these numbers and then hang up the phone   A good excuse for me to waste my ???   Because you kept me here by ???      And I don’t wish   That you could be   So that it would stop   Me from asking   But lend me your ear dear      Did I tell you I don’t think this will work out   That I love you but I’m wanting something else   Something close to me that I cannot forgive   Something far away that I’d like to end with   End with   End with   End with      ??? maybe if we had met under different circumstances I’d forget   Let me tell you that you got me to work ????      Did I tell you I don’t think this will work out   That I love you but I’m wanting something else   Something close to me that I cannot forgive   Something far away that I’d like to end with   End with   End with
