We’re the Pattern People
When you decide it's time for us to part
I always know by the things that you don't say
And the things that you don't show
They follow in succession, and to me it's no surprise
When it's time you tell the truth and when it's time you lie
And when it's time you shoot that same old look across the room
That seems to take away the day, and soon you bring the gloom
We're the pattern people
We're the pattern people
We're the pattern people
Wе're the pattern pеople
And you say the same old words when it's time to say goodbye
And I always need some sympathy, and so you try to cry
And I always say it's over and this time will be the end
And you vow that now you’re sure that you can let me be your friend
And we go our separate ways but we always mark the street
So that when it's time to love again we can arrange to meet
We're the pattern people
We're the pattern people
We're the pattern people
We're the pattern people
And we write those same old letters, and we sing the same old songs
And when we're tired of crying, we go back where we belong
We're the pattern people
We're the pattern people
We're the pattern people
We're the pattern people
