It was quite the pleasure, meeting you that night
A quiet restaurant, by quiet candlelight
Naked conversations, guarded honesty
Listening to each other’s ideologies

That was all our introduction
I staggered home with hope and fear
We said hello, then we said good bye
If only for the thrill
It’s then I wondered why

I’m a dope, help me cope
Throw a rope, give me hope
And save the day
Send a smile, and that’s when I’ll
Reconcile, the many miles
I’ve run astray | I’ve come they say

It was nice to feel that resonance with you
There was this chemistry that told me it was true
I can be low, I can be high
Maybe I’m that predictable
Maybe I’m not your kind of guy

Forget I mentioned that I need you
Go ahead and slap my face
Take the fall and yes you might get hurt
With so much bliss
Before you hit the dirt

(Chorus, Lead)

I pick up my phone and there it is from you
A lonely message that says you’re lonely too
She says, we could get together every single night
You know I’d love to see you in all that candlelight

That’s the state of my confusion
Would some one tell me what to do
Cause here I am knocking on her door
But maybe I should run
Before I hit the floor

Chorus
