I saw you standing all alone across the crowded room.
|
I didn't think that I would see you soon and you, you don't move.
|
|
You wear your whole life there in circles underneath your eyes.
|
All I need to know is how to read between the lines,
|
but you somehow hide it all.
|
|
I watched you spill your drink and laugh you're such a drama queen.
|
You always look so good when you wear black and green,
|
but you, you're not fooling anyone.
|
|
It was crowded but I knew that you were close.
|
I don't think I like this little game of cat and mouse,
|
but you, you don't show.
|
|
It was almost 3 o'clock when you walked up to me.
|
I started to but found that I just could not speak,
|
but you, you looked so prepared.
|
|
You said something and I didn't know what it was.
|
I watched your lips move but your voice wasn't loud enough.
|
So I just smiled and nodded that's when you decided to just walk, walk away.
|
|
I got this overwhelming feeling like there's something wrong.
|
Maybe it's the lighting or this same old song, but it's just all in my mind.
|
I watched you walk across the room and then you disappeared.
|
I lost you in the crowd beneath the chandelier, and they, they don't care.
|
|
You were on the terrace in the rain.
|
I asked you if you would come back in, but you just sighed.
|
I could tell that you were crying
|
by the way the mascara ran down your face in such tragic lines.
|
|
You said something and I didn't know what it was.
|
I think that you sounded like you were a little drunk.
|
So I looked over your shoulder that's when you said
|
I told you so and just walked, walked away.
|
|
I could tell that you were crying, by the way
|
Mascara Ran down your face
|
In such tragic lines
|
|
You said something and I didn't know what it was.
|
Something about how you tried but you're giving up.
|
So I leaned in for a kiss that's when you said
|
I can't do this and just walked, walked away.
