Hello sweet Joan, so glad you're home

Just called to say goodbye

I'm leaving town, I'm bent and bound

Don't try to change my mind

You ask me why I'm leaving

But we both know the reason



You're knee deep in love

Guess it's over and done for us

You and me

You're knee deep in love

But I'm not the one

I'm not the one, I know



Isn't it strange how people change

And slowly drift apart

Like you and me, it had to be

I've known it from the start

You're trying not to show it

But in my heart I know it



You're knee deep in love

Guess it's over and done for us

You and me

You're knee deep in love

Oh, but I'm not the one

I'm not the one, I know



'Cause it's in the way you hold me

And in the lies you've told me

Everything I do seems to

Annoy you and displease you

You never share your laughter

And in the morning after

You try to sweep me under your rug

You don't have to say it



You're knee deep in love

Guess it's over and done for us

You and me

You're knee deep in love

But I'm not the one

I'm not the one, I know

I know
