I'm sitting here in darkness   A glass of whiskey at my feet   I've been beggin' for forgiveness   But I'd settle for some peace      Because I miss all of my old friends   They don't know me anymore   It's easy to get lost on the ocean   When you've traveled this far from shore      So come on, baby   Smile real big   Even if I've had no part in it   And don't worry, darlin'   Just so you know   If you walk away, I promise not to follow      I'm scared of being lonely   But I've got a lot to learn about love   It works both ways, or so I've been told   I guess I'm the only one I'm thinking of      Because I've been blinded by ambition   I'm growing bored with this routine   Tell me what's so great about success, darlin'   If I ain't got no one to share it with me      So come on, baby   Smile real big   Even if I've had no part in it   And don't worry, darlin'   Just so you know   If you walk away, I promise not to follow      So don't worry, darlin'   Just so you know   If this is you walking away   I promise not to follow
