Where did you learn what it means to reciprocate?
And how much can I be expected to tolerate?
So I started to think about the plans I made
The debt unpaid
And you just can't call
A spade a spade
I watch the moon
Let it run my mood
Can't stop thinking of you
I watch you (Now I let it go)
(And I watch as things play out like)
So long nice to know you I'll be moving on
We started off in such a nice place
We were talking the same language
I o-open and I'm closing
