Intro

Verse 1

With a foot out the door, and one in my way

  You're leaving me home for another work day

  I'd follow you out, but you'd keep me in, so

  I'm watching you leave with my nose on the window

Verse 2

I could just sleep all day

  Just to stay up at night and keep you awake

If I could speak my mind

  I'd go out on a limb and say with a sigh

Pre-chorus 1

I'm the only one

  Who sees you when you think you're by yourself

Chorus 1

  If I'm too much to carry

Just put me down gently

If I'm too much to carry

Just put me down gently

Verse 3

I've been your pillow for an after-work nap

  And how many shrinks curl up in your lap?

  Friends come and go but I'm still here

Pre-chorus 2

  Have you forgotten me?

  My curiosity's killing me

(Eight left to go...)

Chorus 2

  If I'm too much to carry

Just put me down gently

If I'm too much to carry

Just put me down gently

Bridge

  Don't worry at all for me

  I've always landed on my feet

  So if you're gone, at least leave the TV on

  Re-runs

Interlude

Verse 4

I could just sleep all day

  Just to stay up at night and keep you awake

If I could speak my mind

  I'd go out on a limb and say with a sigh

Pre-chorus 3

I'm the only one

  Who sees you when you think you're by yourself

Chorus 3

  If I'm too much to carry

Just put me down gently

If I'm too much to carry

Just put me down gently

Outro

Just put me down gently

Just put me down gently

Just put me down gently

Just put me down gently
