08 What’s Wrong With This Picture?
Here we are again
Exchanging fluids
And Exchanging made up numbers
Temporarily tattooed on the backs of our hands
With a biro the bar tender lent us
Never intending to see if the numbers really add up
Intending to avoid the disappointment of knowing
Preferring the myth of a missed opportunity
A could’ve been, should’ve been, would’ve been
Something oh-so-special
What’s wrong with this picture?
There’s no movie magic
What’s wrong – no rom com
What’s wrong with this picture?
Just a pessimistic, tragic, non-rom-com song
Here we go again, jumping whenever the phone rings
And dreading an unkown number
Secretly hoping but admitting to no one
Especially ourselves
We’re stronger than that, aren’t we?
We’d never expose that much frailty
We watch our own backs, using two mirrors
Intending to avoid the disappointment of knowing
Preferring the myth of a missed opportunity
A could’ve been, should’ve been, would’ve been
Something oh-so-special
What’s wrong with this picture?
There’s no movie magic
What’s wrong – no rom com
What’s wrong with this picture?
Where’s the optimistic, addicting….
Rom-com song gone wrong?
