If I D Only Come And Gone lyrics

If I`d only come and gone the way I`ve always done with summer girls before
Shared one night with you and never reached for more
Then we wouldn`t face this long and painful rightin` of the wrong
If I`d just come and gone
If I hadn`t stayed so long but merely parked my dusty boots oyutside your door
Traced no footprints cross your polished hardwood floor
I`d have left you in your doorway smiling drowsy at the dawn
If I`d just come and gone
And I`d be on a shining silver plane dippin` into Denver
Or a schooner blowing down the Biscayne Bay
And you`d be safely tucked away among the pleasures I`d remember
Stead of laying here beside me fearin` restless thoughts inside me
That might awaken with the breakin` of each new day
If you`d only stopped to read
Cold hard words I cavered on the other bedroom walls
Heard the morning coffee truths I told `em all
I`d still be on your lips like some unfinished half remembered song
You`d have never loved me if I`d just come and gone
