(INTRO)
  

-----------------------------------------
                  
  One and three, you are here (to tell me we can't do this)
          
To tell me we can't do this
                        
(Three for three, I'll disagree.)
------------------------------------------

      
Anymore...

-----------------------------------------
                            
Your hair and face against the mirror
             
As I take the steps
   
To save what's left of me
                        
   Someone's out when it's over
-----------------------------------------
 	                
    People steal from you
   	                      
They take anything they choose
-----------------------------------------
           
   It's good to see you (I missed you last night)
                   
   That's such a lovely color (It goes with your eyes)
                
  Before we fall asleep (I just wanted to say)
             
This all seems so easy, but there's choices to make
-----------------------------------------

 
  Can't decide
                    
  Then look at the faces (candlelight)
                    
  We're burning the pages (But ask us why)
                 
  And hurting ourselves with this false start
               
  (Resign yourself) and we pretend
                 
  It simply gets easier
                  
  But does it get easier
          
  When we have these mornings where we can't say goodbye?
-----------------------------------------
                           
  I wanted to mean everything to you
                  
  But this isn't right
                       
  You keep coming back disassembled and 
              
I keep losing this fight.
-----------------------------------------
  
     I   won't (I won't) 
  
    An - swer (Answer)
-----------------------------------------
              
    Dancing on the starlight glow
             
    No one in the city knows
              
    Confidence can take you
              
Nerves try to shake you
              	  		
From going all the way
-----------------------------------------
 	    
It's not that far
-----------------------------------------

            
    It's good to see you, I missed you last night
                  
     That's such a lovely color, it goes with your eyes
                
   Before we fall asleep, I just wanted to say
               
  This all seems so easy -- there's choices to make.
-----------------------------------------
					         
    We watch the tide roll in (with cold air and coffee cakes)
           				     		
    Holding our words at lips, (stopping the sounds they make)
                                                    
    We know the way to go we know each step to take (to be here)
-----------------------------------------

  These words with no replies

  Stopping we's and starting I's

  This need is killing me

And taking me over
-----------------------------------------
                
  I wanted to mean everything to you
            
  But this isn't right
                     
  You keep coming back disassembled and 
             
I keep losing this fight
-----------------------------------------
