Someone will take your place, but your place stays right here Everytime you go away, you're on your way back here When you walked out you left a case in the hall There's a key in my pocket, but the lock on the case is much too small I'll hide it underneath my bed and I'll sleep on it until you're back I promise I won't try to crack it open Does it hold your precious things, your letters, money, diamond rings? Or just some things you wanted to get rid of? Well, I can't get rid of this I thought I saw you walking on the street yesterday But when you turned around, your face was not the same I thought I heard your voice on the telephone But when you answered, nobody was home Baby, did I do you wrong? Why can't we just get it on, because I hate to lose your love Honey, why do you act so strange? Isn't it time to just rearrange? Because I don't want to lose you And I'm gonna lose you Someone will take your place, but your place stays right here Everytime you go away, you're on your way back here Away from me to me
