Silly Habits

Janis Ian

* Also recorded by Mel Torme

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
Silly habits mean a lot
