The dogs outside are barking
They're urging a song
Why don't we get to it
Before they're all gone?
I'm just afraid to tell you what I'm thinking
It might take too long
Maybe your mother
Would go take a walk
I know that she knows
That we need to talk
I'm just afraid to tell you what I'm thinking
You might leave me here
Your father is sleeping
It's easy to see
Or maybe he'd leave us
While watching TV
I'm just afraid to tell you what I'm thinking
It might take too long
Maybe your brother
Wouldn't mind it if we
Went up to his room
He doesn't know me
I'm just afraid to tell you what I'm thinking
You might leave me here
And maybe your sister'd like it
If we cleaned up her room
You with the dustpan
And me with the broom
I'm just afraid to tell you what I'm thinking
You might leave me here
The dogs outside are barking
They're urging a song
Why don't we get to it
Before they're all gone?
I'm just afraid to tell you what I'm thinking
You might leave me here
