Songtext von Small Favors

I have to sit you down Let me tell you what it's all about Cause I've been carrying a torch around And I've forgotten how to snuff it out And you have been unkind And that's a matter I cannot ignore You have to skirt around the truth sometimes But it's time I told you what I came here for To thank you for all the small favors I'm thinkin' now I hope it doesn't change us And take us to a time when we were strangers In a two-station town You can't get the train to slow down Small favors Oh to you as sure as she was honest And now do you remember when you promised To forgive me someday The debts that I can't repay The debts that I can't repay And I cannot forget You looked at me as if I'd lost a bet And I hadn't opened up my big mouth yet And I thought of crawling back into the plane And though it's sad to tell I still remember how the dry-eye felt Across the curtains in the cheap hotel Lit-up dust clouds in the window pane And I thank you for all the small favors I'm thinkin' now I hope it doesn't change us And take us to a time when we were strangers In a two-station town You can't get the train to slow down Small favors I'm thinkin' now I hope it doesn't change us And take us to a time when we were strangers In a two-station town You can't get the train to slow down Small favors Oh to you as sure as she was honest Now do you remember when you promised Forgive me someday The debts that I can't repay The debts that I can't repay The debts that I can't repay
