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
