I have to sit you down

Let me tell you what its all about

Cause Ive been carrying a torch around

And Ive forgotten how to snuff it out

And you have been unkind

And thats a matter I cannot ignore

You have to skirt around the truth sometimes

But its time I told you what I came here for

To thank you for all the small favors

Im thinkin now I hope it doesnt change us

And take us to a time when we were strangers

In a two-station town

You cant get the train to slow down

Small favors

Oh to you as sure as she was honest

And now do you remember when you promised

To forgive me someday

The debts that I cant repay

The debts that I cant repay

And I cannot forget

You looked at me as if Id lost a bet

And I hadnt opened up my big mouth yet

And I thought of crawling back into the plane

And though its sad to tell

I still remember how the dry-eye felt

Across the curtains in the cheap hotel

Lit-up dust clouds in the window pane

And I thank you for all the small favors

Im thinkin now I hope it doesnt change us

And take us to a time when we were strangers

In a two-station town

You cant get the train to slow down

Small favors

Im thinkin now I hope it doesnt change us

And take us to a time when we were strangers

In a two-station town

You cant get the train to slow down

Small favors

Oh to you as sure as she was honest

Now do you remember when you promised

Forgive me someday

The debts that I cant repay

The debts that I cant repay

The debts that I cant repay
