| Fret through the snow
|
| I wanna know how to beat this
|
| And you’re the only one I know
|
| Who can let me in on the secret
|
| Under the pretense
|
| That I can’t afford to see you only weekends
|
| When we both see the bend
|
| But we can play pretend, pretend, pretend
|
| And I was right up front
|
| I watched it all go down
|
| Those invisible things
|
| You were figuring out
|
| And you put on a front
|
| Just laughing on about
|
| Some classic joke I told
|
| About your favorite noun
|
| You said I’m always looking for disaster
|
| But I know just where to look
|
| And I’m shook, I’m shook, I’m shook
|
| Cause you were the one I was waiting for
|
| You were the one I was longing for
|
| And I was right up front
|
| I watched it all go down
|
| Those invisible things
|
| You were figuring out
|
| And you put on a front
|
| Just laughing on about
|
| That classic joke I told
|
| About your favorite noun
|
| And I will die alone
|
| And that’ll be just fine
|
| But every time we make love
|
| She turns off the lights
|
| Thought I had discovered
|
| Something to curb the pain
|
| But every time I detour
|
| It all ends the same |
