If I weren’t me and you weren’t you We would be happy together
The times you reached for my hand
You’d find it there I wouldn’t be so scared to dance in front of strangers
And you’d have the courage to speak of hidden desires
We would tear up this bright lit city
Make peace in the daytime
And prepare the night for more ravaging
But I am me
And you are you
And thats why we’re not together
That’s why my hands are in pockets and you dance alone
That’s why you and the city share a stoic silence
That’s why we are
And will remain
Apart
Oh lord give me but one chance
I promise to take that breath away
