There’s a desperate desire that circles the room Consuming the conscience and setting the mood She’s a girl with a guy; I’m a guy with a girl
Time slows down and hearts beat faster We’ll create our own disasters Underneath the sheets of distrust Neither one of us can ignore this rust
Don’t ask, don’t tell, just keep it all to yourself And there’s something about those blue eyes And the sweet, sweet smell of a summer night It makes me forget whoever it is I should be remembering
A quarter to five and arrogant sunrise burns up the night We’ll open our eyes to see what we’ve done And we’ll both run in opposite directions Avoiding the questions and our own reflections At least for a week or two
Don’t ask, don’t tell, just keep it all to yourself And there’s something about those blue eyes And the sweet, sweet smell of a summer night It makes me forget whoever it is I should be remembering Remembering now
Time slows down and hearts beat faster We’ll create our own disasters Mistakes and Missed opportunities both come with regret Can you bet which one I’m willing to live with?
Don’t ask, don’t tell, just keep it all to yourself [x2] And there’s something about those blue eyes And the sweet, sweet smell of a summer night It makes me forget whoever it is I should be remembering I should be remembering now.
