Left you a note by the bed saying thanks for the night   Tripped on the phone as I left and I woke up the cat   I took a long last look at you asleep on the bed   I stole a paper from your neighbor for the bus ride back      But things are never what they seem, c'mon   Now hold your breath for what comes next      This game of chess   Where everything stays set   And no one makes a move   So no one gets upset   And nothing breaks your heart   No nothing shakes your bed   Don't start me, Don't start me      Outside on the streets on the 5th of July   It was a better day to be a little bitter on the inside   I turned a corner and the sun went blind   I had a vision you were with me when the fireworks died      But things are never what they seem, c'mon   She's blushing red but what comes next      Yet I confess   The things you said   The mess you left   Your silhouette   It's got me calling to let you know   To let you know I won't forget
