Once the flight
had flown
with the wilt of
the rose
I slept all alone
you still wouldn't go
Let's fast forward
to three hundred
takeout coffees later
I see your profile
and your smile
on unsuspecting waiters
You dream of my mouth
before it called you
a lying traitor
You search in
every maiden's bed
for something greater
Baby was it over
when she laid down
on your couch?
Was it over
when he unbuttoned
my blouse?
"Come here"
I whispered in your ear
in your dream
as you passed out baby
Was it over then?
And is it over now?
When you lost control
red blood, white snow
blue dress on a boat
your new girl is my clone
And did you think
I didn't see you?
There were flashing lights
At least I had the decency
to keep my nights out of sight
only rumours 'bout
my hips and thighs
And my whispered sighs
oh Lord I think about jumping
off of very tall somethings
just to see you come running
And say the one thing
I've been wanting
but no
let's fast forward
to three hundred
awkward blind dates later
If she's got blue eyes
I will surmise that
you'll probably date her
You dream of my mouth
before it called you
a lying traitor
You search in
every model's bed
for something greater
Baby was it over
when she laid down
on your couch?
Was it over
when he unbuttoned
my blouse?
"Come here"
I whispered in your ear
in your dream
as you passed out baby
Was it over then?
And is it over now?
Think I didn't see you?
There were flashing lights
At least I had the decency
to keep my nights out of sight
only rumours 'bout
my hips and thighs
And my whispered sighs
oh Lord I think about jumping
off of very tall somethings
just to see you come running
And say the one thing
I've been wanting
but no
Let's fast forward
to three hundred
takeout coffees later
I was hoping you'd be there
and say the one thing
I've been wanting
but no
