So now she's on her way
Home from work alone for dinner
Close the door to the microwave
Underneath that phone that just won't ring
-
Sittin' on the bus
Stare a hole right through the floor
Listening to the squeaky door
Open and close at a stop that's never fine
-
They say if it's well enough
Just leave it alone and they would never
Think to call your bluff
The lie believed 'til your standing all exposed
-
(chorus)
Oh you'll confide
And all those fools will slide
Between you and I
(yeah) Between you and I
-
I've seen that look before
On someone else
Years ago and it's come
Around again
-
Excuse me while I place
A blame on you the game has conjured now
-
And it never was your fault
The wind just seemed to carry the spit your way
-
(chorus)
My time is spent
So all those years can blend
Between you and I
-
(chorus)
Why'd you confide?
Then all your friends can slide
Between you and I
Between you and I
Between you and I
Between you and I
-
Well the effort to forget
And nature's moving far too slow
The effort to forget
I still recall the effort to forget
