So now she's on her way   Home from work, alone for dinner   You 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 mine   They say if it's well enough   Just leave it alone and they would never   Think to call your bluff   The lie believed till you're standing all exposed      Oh, you'll confide   And all those fools will slide   Between you and I   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   The blame on you, the game has conjured now   And it never was your fault   The wind just seemed to carry the spit your way      My time is spent   So all those years can blend   Between you and I   Why'd you confide   Now all your friends can slide   Between you and I   Between you and I   Between you and I   Between you and I      The effort to forget   Nature's moving far too slow   The effort to forget   I still recall the effort to forget
