I said a couple words
And I thought it was true
What they meant was what they said
What a fool
See I forgot to learn
All the codes that you crack
When your back is all I see
In your face
What a shame to be so lost in the ways of love
I made a couple moves
And I thought they were good
What they meant was what they should
Really mean
But it came across to you
Like a thief in the night
Such a different kind of light
Mostly dark
What a shame to be so lost in the ways of love
Like at the fair when you stick
Your hand through a hole in the wall
To a bowl of peeled grapes
I feel around
Touching things that never make sense
Then I recoil from the horror
Of the codes
