Please don't forget me I'm going away I'm taking a taxi to Kentucky Where they don't need to know all about me I just need to feel safe I've got a thousand sweaters and shoes and paintings to hide The skeletons in my bed Don't ask where I'm going I'm going away I'm going my way Finally, it's my time To be lonely, and lost, unloved and I can't wait Don't forget what I said Don't forget my letter Every night I pray for you I don't got no religion Isn't that something? I'll miss those days I, I saved that bottle It's now ten years aged I've got some bibles I could sell for money And a pair of fresh-shaved legs Won't you baby come with me? I've got extra space In my car, in my heart, in my mind Look there's the passenger seat By the postcards you gave (Don't know where I'm going) I'm going away I'm going my way Finally, it's my time To be lonely, and lost, unloved and I can't wait Don't forget what I said Don't forget my letter Every night I pray for you I don't got no religion Isn't that something? I'll miss those days But he said: Slow down, slow down Think it over, we've all got wretched closets But silly girl pride kills more than AIDS lately I said: Come on I've thought it over I don't want to die here I've no desire to get married I can't race the others anymore No, I must learn to race myself I'm going away I'm going my way Finally, it's my time To be lonely, and lost, unloved and I can't wait Please forget what I said (I'll find my way) Please forget my letter Every night I pray for you I don't got a religion Isn't that something? I'll miss those days
