No Word On Me

* There are two versions of this song on the same album:
One with lyrics, and one performed as an instrumental.

Lyric:
Well I hear you're in California where good things have come to you 
They say you've got a sun-tanned beach-bum with a place in Malibou 
Well I'm glad to see that you finally got where you thought you ought to be 
But so far there's no word on me

Well I think I'm here where you left me but I really can't be sure 
You couldn't take the problems, babe, well I can't take the cure 
But it don't take much to see how you enjoy just being free 
But so far there's no word on me

I suppose there might be those who say I'm better off with you gone 
But you take being on your own much better than I take being alone 
But outside you being gone there's nothing new that I can see 
'Cause so far there's no word on me

Well I guess you're workin' on gettin' it together and I'm still workin' on "Why?" 
Of all the things that you had to say you had to go and say "goodbye" 
But it don't take much to see how you enjoy just being free 
But so far there's no word on me

I suppose there might be those who say I'm better off with you gone 
But you take being on your own much better than I take being alone 
But I'm glad to see that you finally got to where you thought you ought to be 
But so far there's no word on me 
So far there's no word on me
