I am seated before you
September hasn’t turned
this lazy desire
I can feel the burn
the moon hangs above me
lonely in his sky
please say you love me
even if it’s a lie
Procuring the favor
has never been a task
all crimson and ivory
you melt away the mask
he’s your white knight,
I wear the black hat
I’ve got a heart of gold,
but you don’t know that would you care if you knew?
mmm, would you care if you knew?
he waits in the parlor
suspicion in his eyes
please say you love me even
if it’s a lie
Anyway, this thing never stays
falling in and out of romance
I am just a trifle, a bullet with no rifle
but how I’d shoot for you
oh, how I’d shoot for you
Anyway, this thing never stays
falling in and out of romance
ooh, we’ve had our chances;
teenage romances
you never went away
please don’t go away
Won’t you say you love me?
it’s the only thing I want to hear you say
Won’t you say you love me?
t’s the only thing, if only for a day
