I'm heading out now,
not sure what
time I'll be back. 

I might decide
to visit someone who
I haven't seen in a while
Or take a trip
to somewhere
I've never been before. 

I'll be back
but I'm not
sure when yet.
I might go walking and
bump into someone
and then
start talking. 

We might end up
going for a drink or two.
Who knows what will
happen when I walk
out that door? 

I could tell you that I'll be
back for nine
But I can't say for sure
And I don't want
To be lying. 

I'm going out.
I'll be back,
I promise you that.

Don't wait up.
