I found it on the bathroom mirror this morning The note you wrote in lipstick red And I saw me standing there Bloodshot eyes and messed-up hair And I knew before I read it what it said: (Chorus 1): \"There's coffee in the pot in the kitchen, And a clean shirt is hangin' up to dry. The eggs are on the shelf. Honey, please don't burn yourself. I love you, I'm sorry, goodbye.\"
All the mean things I'd done went through my head I went back and laid down on the bed Looking at the ceiling I got such an empty feeling And one by one, I went over those words I'd read (Repeat chorus 1)
Well I looked all over town til I found you In that all night store on 42nd Avenue In that supermarket, people complained About us kissin' in the check-out lane But we've got a lot of making up to do
(Chorus 2) Now we've got coffee in the pot in the kitchen And a clean start on life we're gonna try I've got you back to stay I'll never have to say I love you, I'm sorry, goodbye Now I've got you back to stay I'll never have to say I love you, I'm sorry, goodbye
