This Time

This Time - Frankie Valli/The Four Seasons

By the time I get to phoenix she'll be rising

And she'll find that note that I left hanging on the door

And she'll laugh when she reads the part

That says I'm leaving

Cause I've left that girl so many times before

And by the time I get to albuquerque she'll be working

And she'll take off time just to give me a call

And she'll just hear that phone keep right on ringing

On the wall that's all

And by the time I make oklahoma she'll be sleeping

She'll turn softly in call my name out low

And then she'll cry just to think that I'd really leave her

But time after time after time I tried to tell her so

But she just didn't know that I would really go
