I could walk down to the bus stop
Take the bus to the airport
And take a plane to St. Louis
And take a cab to State Street
And knock on your door

But you wouldn't be home
Or if you were you'd be on the phone
In the other room
And wouldn't hear me knock
Or you'd have headphones on
Listening to neutral milk hotel
And wouldn't hear me knock
Or you'd be in your room
Making noise with some boy
And wouldn't hear me knock

And even if you heard me knock
And looked through the peephole
You wouldn't recognize me
You'd think, who's this jerk
What's he trying to sell
Oh my god, I'll pretend that I'm not here

And even if you recognized me
You wouldn't want to see me
After all I did, and all you didn't do
You wouldn't need to see me
After changing the locks, after building blocks
After the rusty hinges, after the drinking binges
After Mexico, after Chicago
After the Christmas tree, after page three
After the birthday cake, after Crater Lake
And after six o'clock at the barber shop
After the daydream, after the skin cream
And after passing the buck, after toking up
And after breaking up
You wouldn't need to see me

And even if you wanted to see me
It'd just be for coffee or tea
A few small words, not even a laugh
Then maybe, thanks for stopping by
And nothing more than that
Maybe, call me up next time you're in town
But nothing meant by that
And nothing more than that

And even if
For some strange reason
On some odd whim
You called me back
To see your room
And your new sheets
I'd have to feel your new silk sheets
I'd have to feel your new silk sheets
I'd have to feel your...
And even if it came to that
And even if we went that far
When it ended, you'd be tired and bored
And you'd see me out the door
Like you saw me out the door
And we'd be awkward, tired, and bored
And I'd see myself out the door
And we wouldn't fall asleep
Or if you fell asleep I'd know
That you wouldn't want me there
When you awoke
So I'd see myself out the door

And I'd take a cab to the airport
And take a plane back to my town
And take a bus to my home
And walk back into my bedroom
And lie back down on the bed

And so why bother after all
And so why bother after all
And so why bother after all
So it won't be happening
