lyrics

Don’t know why I keep on tryin’
‘Cause I don’t want you
And you couldn’t have me if you told the truth.
But I love to watch you lyin’
No, I can’t look away,
And when you walk me out it makes me wanna stay.

You say, “go on”
But your smile says, “stay”
You say, “I’d walk you home,
But I don’t know the way.”
And I say:

I live in the world between
What you say and what you mean
So drop by when you’ve got your fences mended.
I’m at the corner of lovers and friendship.

Don’t know why I just can’t see it
‘Cause I know it’s true,
But I go myopic for those baby blues.
Sometimes I wish you’d just decree it:
That you were never mine
Even when you were and we were lost in time.

You say, “let’s go
Across the sea
And I’ll build a home
For you and me”
And I say:

I live in the world between
What you say and what you mean
Don’t offer a vacation if we’re just gonna spend it
At the corner of lovers and friendship.

And I’m starin’ at a box that reads, “in emergency break the glass”
And I’m feelin’ urgency as the days keep blowin’ past, and if you’d say
You don’t need me, you don’t need me, you don’t need me at all
Then you could break the glass surrounding my porcelain heart.
But you can’t expound
On what you feel
You need to write it down
To make it real
And I say,

Well, I live in the world between
What you say and what you mean
So write a letter and find the guts to send it
To the corner where I…
I live in the world between
What you say and what you mean
So if your letter comes back, that’s cause I’m not there to get it
At the corner of lovers and friendship
