Janis Ian Silly Habits Lyrics

Silly Habits Lyrics

I'm still in love  

  though I don't care  

  to let you know  

  there's something there  

  it doesn't show  

  but when you're near  

  silly habits mean a lot  

  I've been alone now  

  for quite some time, it's true  

  but every night when I come home  

  I'm coming home to you  

  I listen for your footsteps  

  Sometimes I even knock  

  Silly habits mean a lot  

  I've been parading  

  and I've led a lot astray  

  Why bother waiting?  

  when you can have it all today  

  You may remember  

  I like my coffee hot  

  Silly habits mean a lot  

  So you go your way  

  and I'll go mine  

  Maybe someday  

  our paths will re-entwine  

  I used to say "I love you"  

  but one day I forgot  

  Silly habits mean a lot
