Music: Grace McDunnough
Lyrics: Salome Strangelove & Grace McDunnough
She called again and just left her name
You shrug and smile – it’s some new flame
A fool could read between these lines
I’m not asking any questions
You’re volunteering lies
This is the place where some will say
All’s fair in love and war
And I know in time I may agree
But right now all I can do is
Watch you hide away from me
It’s half passed three, I can smell her perfume
I’m lost in visions of cigarettes and motel rooms
This play’s as old as the tides
You’re bathing in her oceans
I’m drowning in my pride
This is the place where some would say
If you love something, set it free
And I know in time I may agree
But right now all I can do is
Watch you sail away from me
I know that I deserve this
I knew how you came to my bed
Don’t let it make you nervous
I never once believed the things you said
Save the roses for another hour
No one’s asked you to pretend
We both knew our full circle Would be a dead end
Yes, this is the place where some would say
Better to have lost than never loved at all
Who knows, in time I may agree
But right now all I know is
That’s it’s time to live for me
For me for me
