lyrics

I fell short from this conversation,
your words can't embarrass me.
I doubt we'll crack this combination,
sit back and have a chance to see.
Lets celebrate,
when it comes to midnight.
We're giving up,
we've lost this time.

You insist that I learn the basics,
on the ways to communicate.
These girls appear so face less,
tell me 'What does it take?'.
I'll call it quits,
when body gives way.
I'm getting tired,
of the games we play.

I took a chance hoping we'd get along,
I've got to admit it that we've got it wrong.
Dressed up in black whilst you're biting your tongue,
he's dancing with your hips to my favourite song.
