I woke up this morning and I ran a crooked mile,
that's how I started my day,
It took eleven minutes, I said it took me ten,
Oh the silly games we play
I tell myself all the time I'm faster than I am
It's a scam, I lie to my face,
I don't know why I do it when I know that there's only one Horse running this race

Refrain.

And I wonder if I'm fooling myself saying I love you
And I wonder if I cheat this old heart just to be loved
If I'm just a fool and fools only
See what they want things to be
I wonder if you cheat yourself too loving on me.

I go back to your letter, I read it all again
God knows it's balanced and fair
But all I can see are the kisses at the end
And oh the lines that aren't there.
I try to make you laugh, I try to dry your tears
It's okay, it's only the rain,
The pledges and the promises all made in good faith
At the time buckle and strain.

Refrain.

I promise you the full moon , I promise you the stars
I give you a rose in it's prime,
I wait for your sweet kiss, I wait for your touch,
Oh but you're taking your time.
I say we should move in together meanwhile and
You smile but you don't approve,
You say let's be friends which keeps me in the frame
Just about with no room to move.

Refrain.
