lyrics

We both know what's happening
still we act like we don't understand
'cause you know I'm faithful to my woman
and I know you're true to your man

But why are we still here together
we shouldn't be drinking so much wine
trying to act like it's normal
though we know we're crossing every line

this is where you should've said you're going
this is where I should've said goodnight
this is where I look the other way
this is where I turn on the light

but still we're sitting here and talking
so softly in the dark
inch by inch I lean in closer
till I'm close enough to mark

that your breathing's getting faster
and your pupils are dilated
my hand it slips right past you
reaction anticipated

you hesitate to let go
are you trying make your mind up
did you know right from the get-go
that this is how we'd wind up

I never saw it coming
it took me by surprise
baby I've been drinking
look into my eyes
I know this isn’t wise
but I never saw it coming
it took me by surprise


suddenly it's morning
the first thing that I see
you're heading for the door and
turning back to look at me

did you think that I was still sleeping
when I looked back you started
you look like you've been crying
are you feeling broken-hearted?

now should we talk about this
should we just let this slide
do we look for closure
or do leave it open wide

just leave it like we found it
though we know that it's a crime
there's no way around it
it happens every time
baby

I never saw it coming
it took me by surprise
baby I've been drinking
look into my eyes
I know this isn’t wise
but I never saw it coming
it took me by surprise
