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
