Lyrics
This was unexpected
I never saw this coming
But now it’s been said
It can never be taken back
We sat and drank wine
As the conversation became more personal
The wine did its work
And we tiptoed ever closer
To ever more delicate matters
And then you said it
Time and reconsideration
May make this just a whim
But even just a whim
Can change the path of things
I told you to think
To examine your motivations
And in turn I’d examine mine
Such a departure
From how I thought things were and would be
The only contact in a year
A formal handshake and suddenly …
We’re contemplating this ?
No, it’s too much to get my head around
But despite my suspicious, clipped euphoria
I fear the ring of the phone
And its heralding of a new disappointment
Why did you have to say this
You were the only one
Where the line was too far away
To see, let alone step over
And so now you join the others
Another friendship tarnished by flesh
However hypothetical and
Swiftly withdrawn in the cold light of day
