A respectable second, but the memory's different
and I'd rather forget, feeling around for the hold...
Midas to the touch I'm told.
On our backs, in your bed,
smiling at ceiling,
five years ago in a picture with a smile that's 
satisfied forever.

Feeling around for that hold...

On our backs, in your bed,

five years ago in a picture with a smile that's 
satisfied forever.

From best friends to better left unsaid,
never again is a safe bet.

From best friends to better left unsaid,
never again is a safe bet;
and I'll never again become attached
like the burning house to the smoldering match
cause it will never last.
