By the Way lyrics

By the way

Did I hear you say

If some night I seem too lonely

You would stay?

Oh, and by the way

Have I told you yet that only recently

He moved out on me

Took the towels we stole from some motel in Tennessee?

He was gone long before he really left, I knew it

By the way

He began to say

"Love takes time, I'm in a hurry"

Anyway

That's all yesterday

Let's get back to us, why worry?

If you try

Calling by and by

Oh, and by the way

I thought I mentioned you can stay

Leave the lights

You don't look a thing like he did and

It's time to play

It's another day

Why can't we make love

Fall by the way?
