Just a twist of the wrist and my ring leaves your finger It touches the table then falls to the floor And the look in your eye tells me this time it's over A twist of the wrist and you're not mine anymore With a twist of the wrist you're opening the door now I stand like a statute and try not to cry I whisper don't leave me but you don't seem to hear me With a twist of the wrist you're waving goodbye [ guitar ] Just a twist of the wrist and the key starts your car now You haven't even come back for one final kiss It's almost like sayin' you never even loved me For I've meant no more than a twist of the wrist With a twist of the wrist you turn from the driveway I stand like a statute try not to cry I whisper don't leave me but you don't seem to hear me With a twist of the wrist you're waving goodbye
