When the waltzes ended and the cathedrals burned You're not to blame for all my growin' up Now we're standing on the edge of us Bent over backwards what a foolish loss All the drives north on ninety five in silence I rescue myself count as the seconds pass I know that this won't last I've got a secret to tell I try to be I try to be honest I try to be everything you think I should be Can I be, can I be honest? I might not be everything you think I should be When the head is stranded on a bed of stone Two hearts in silence that's no way to go Were we born for poems do we use the words of love The price I pay for all I'm thinking of All the drives south on ninety five in silence I rescue myself count as the seconds pass I know that this won't last I got a secret to tell Try to be try to be honest Try to be everything you think I should be But can I be? Can I be honest I might not be everything you think I should be I can drive you home We can dance alone But I might not be everything you think I should be We can stay late on the phone Laugh till we're old But I might not be everything you think I should be I might not be everything you think I should be I might not be everything you think I should be I might not be everything you think I should be
