Often Is A Word I Seldom Use Lyrics by John Prine

Often Is A Word I Seldom Use Lyrics

    I know that you're sad
    I know that you're lonely
    You lie awake 'till 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
    But often is a word i seldom use
    Often is a word i seldom use.

    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.

    You must think my life's a circus
    Watching me laughing
    And slapping my thighs
    How'd ya like to die
    In the house of mirrors
    With nobody around to close your eyes.

    Chorus:

    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:
