INTRO
[a Capella]
Everything we touched would sparkle
Like a silhouette against the light

VERSE
I took a ride this weekend
And I tried to figure out
What to do about our lives
On the day the truth comes out

It was a magic moment
The two of us just sitting there
Conversing and reversing time
Now there’s just an empty chair (and you know)

CHORUS
When I look into your eyes
Are you wearing a disguise?
I wonder how we’re lovers…

VERSE
It was a perfect union
Yeah our thoughts were so aligned
Everything we touched would sparkle
Like a silhouette against the light

But then he came between us
And with a thousand little thrusts
He carved us up and bled us dry
And had the nerve to add “In God we trust”

CHORUS
Cross my heart and hope to live
Long enough where they’ll forgive
And wonder how we’re lovers…

In the middle of the night
I wonder how we’re lovers…

BRIDGE (instrumental)

VERSE
I recollect the moment
When they tore the curtain down
Revealing all the props and lights
You’re The Succubus of this whole town

Now we’re on a plane that’s headed
To our opulent exile
What’s left of our lives overhead
What’s left of you a vague and empty smile

CHORUS
Somewhere below 10,000 feet
You finally admit defeat
And wonder how we’re lovers….

In the middle of the night
I wonder how we’re lovers…

When I look into your eyes
I wonder how we’re lovers…
