I See You Weeping

DAVE HEILMAN

I See You Weeping

I SEE YOU DARLING, AS YOU'RE WEEPING

IN THE WINDOW OF YOUR ROOM

AND I SEE THERE'RE NO TEARS IN YOUR EYES, AND YOU'VE BEEN

CRYING RIVERS ON THE MOON

AND I DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR PROBLEMS

AND I CAN SEE THEY'RE PILING ON

AND I CAN ALMOST LAUGH THROUGH ALL MY INDIGNATION

AS YOU WEEP THROUGH CURTAINS DRAWN

SO, PACK YOUR KNICK KNACKS AND YOUR BULL WHIP

I AINT YOUR WHIPPING BOY NO MORE

AND TAKE YOUR HEIRLOOMS AND YOUR BULLSHIT, AND BE ALONE

AND TALK WITH YOUR OWN NEVERMORE

I SEE YOU DARLING, AS YOU'RE WEEPING

AND I CARE LESS ABOUT YOUR FATE

WITH EACH DAY'S PASSING AND I'M SLEEPING BETTER THESE DAYS

AND I WAKE AT HALF PAST EIGHT

I SEE YOU DARLING, AS YOU'RE WEEPING

AND I DON'T CARE ABOUT THE PAST

AND LESSONS LEARNED ARE EARNED THROUGH TENSION AND DISSENSION

AND NICE GUYS ALWAYS FINISH LAST

AND I DON'T CARE ABOUT THE GOOD TIMES

THEY'RE OVERSHADOWED BY THE WORST

WHEN THE RACE IS RUN, AND THE RESULTS ARE IN AND COUNTED

WHY CAN'T THIS NICE GUY FINISH FIRST?

SO, TAKE YOUR DISHES, BOOKS AND RECORDS

AND CARRY THEM FAR OUT OF SIGHT

BUT, LEAVE THE BLANKET ON THE BED FOR ME TO SLEEP IN

SO I'VE GOT SOME PLACE WARM TO LAY AT NIGHT

I SEE YOU DARLING, AS YOU'RE WEEPING

AND I AM SCOWLING AT THE MOON

I'M AWAKE RIGHT NOW, BUT I AM GROWING WEARY

AND I'LL BE SLEEPING SOON

SO, TAKE MY MONEY AND MY RAILROAD

AND TAKE MY HOTEL PARKING LOT

AND TAKE MY BOARDWALK CONDO, SEND ME OFF TO JAIL

AND AS FOR NOTHIN'...THANKS A LOT

BUT, I'LL BE ALRIGHT IN THE MORNING

WHEN ALL MY REAL ESTATE'S SECURED

AND I DON'T HAVE TO LOOK AT YOU, OR HEAR YOUR NAME EVER AGAIN

AND HAPPINESS BE MY REWARD

I SEE YOU DARLING, AS YOU'RE WEEPING

LET HAPPINESS BE MY REWARD
