[Verse 1]
I know that you're sad, I know that you're lonely
You lie awake ‘til way past when
I want you to know that I'm leaving you only
'Cause I might not get the chance again

[Chorus]
I'm cold and I'm tired and I can't stop coughing
Long enough to tell you all of the news
I'd like to tell you that I'll see you more often
Often is a word I seldom use
Often is a word I seldom use

[Bridge]
Tell me, where did the weekend go?
Tell me, where did the weekend go?
Went like thunder, felt like snow
Went like thunder, felt like snow

[Verse 2]
You must think my life's a circus
Watching me laughing and slapping my thighs
How'd you like to die in the house of mirrors
With nobody around to close your eyes?

[Chorus]
I'm cold and I'm tired and I can't stop coughing
Long enough to tell you all of the news
I'd like to tell you that I'll see you more often
Often is a word I seldom use
Often is a word I seldom use
[Bridge]
Tell me, where did the weekend go?
Tell me, where did the weekend go?
Went like thunder, felt like snow
Went like thunder, felt like snow

[Verse 3]
Going down to the Greyhound station
Going back home and get what's mine
Got me a date with the ten o'clock special
Gonna be there at a quarter to nine

[Chorus]
I'm cold and I'm tired and I can't stop coughing
Long enough to tell you all of the news
I'd like to tell you that I'll see you more often
Often is a word I seldom use
Often is a word I seldom use
Often is a word I seldom use
