I quit going to the places you and I used to go

When I heard you'd been callin' me that old silly so and so

Was I silly when I kissed you was I just your favorite clown

Was I just another standing until another came around

Forgive me for loving you pardon me if I still cry

When I see you with someone new I just wish that I could die

Oh you threw me out of your life I can't help it if I'm blue

Excuse me for living if this is living without you

[ piano ]

Seems I'm always in your way to appoint you I have tried

That just doesn't seem to be a place big enough for me to hide

I'll do anything to please you I won't call you up again

You don't have to say you know me just let me see you now and then

Forgive me for loving you...

Excuse me for living if this is living without you
