| All success is fleeting I said to her
|
| Is that what you’ve been reading
|
| She snapped and turned
|
| To someone else and said
|
| «Wait, why was it that he was invited»
|
| That was fun
|
| And if you get this letter and I hope you do
|
| Please don’t get upset or misconstrue
|
| My writing as it’s not as favorable as the applause
|
| You got today
|
| Why don’t you say what you are really
|
| Intending to gain by wearing on me
|
| I still can’t believe you thought us to be
|
| More ET than Steven, Nancy and Lee
|
| When we did they all laughed
|
| It was never more than an act
|
| But I had fun
|
| Why don’t you say what you are really
|
| Intending to gain by falling for me
|
| If it’s true say that you’ll be willing
|
| To believe when I feign my
|
| Questioning stare and instinct to care
|
| When you clean the air again
|
| It’s not like I had alluded
|
| Maybe if you didn’t
|
| Give anything away
|
| Given your lack of grace
|
| Why don’t you say what you are really
|
| Intending to gain by falling for me
|
| If it’s true say that you’ll be willing
|
| To believe when I feign my
|
| Questioning stare and instinct to care
|
| When you clean the air again |
