Lyrics
LIKE ONLY LOVERS CAN
© 2006 Cassandra Kubinski
VERSE Her eyes they shimmer clear blue
But are they as blue as mine?
His smile can light a dark room
Like clouds givin? in to sunshine
She?s got both her arms around you now,
And he?s wrapped around me.
But that glance we just shared, you and I, pure electricity.
CHORUS And I wonder what it?s like
Lying just one night
Tracing down your body, until the dawn?s first light
If I placed all my wishes
In those strong, sleek hands
Would we be gazing at each other
Like only lovers can.
VERSE It just don?t seem practical
We?re comfortable, secure
Why give that up for ?what if??
When we both got something good, for sure
In safe and silent voices,
We both say we?re happy
But that little laugh just betrayed you, and I know mine betrayed me.
CHORUS
VERSE This surely ain?t the last time
My thoughts will shout too loud
We share the same barstools,
Yeah, we run with the same crowd
Are you watching as I leave,
Like a bottle floating out to the sea?
Then do you turn and smile at her, riding a wave of thoughts about me?
CHORUS
