lyrics
We meet for drinks at day time
For the first time
And all my lines you've heard
About a dozen times before
If I could make
You want me I could be myself at last
It's a play
And we're just reading lines from the first act
But we don't have to play along
We could get by on our own
So could we just not play along
And when your salad
Hits the table I sense
The regret that you will be
Starving later
When all I want is
Is to connect to something real
Then I'll go on about the weather
If I could take
You by the hand and pull you close to me
Then I could shake
This feeling like we're playing out a scene
But we don't have to play along
We could get by on our own
So could we just not play along
Because we both know where this goes
Now we don't have to play
No we don't have to play along
We kiss beneath the moonlight
And for the first time
I can feel light enough
To just be carried by the flow
If I could make
You want me maybe you could want to stay
If only for a moment of a day
Just long enough to shake these nerves away
If I could
It's a play
And we don't have to play along
Along
Along
No we don't have to play
