about

Well this started out in Jellyfish territory but took an odd musical-theater direction, which I'll blame on Bo Burnham. I wouldn't mind revisiting this tune later with a little less moon-in-June kind of lyric.

lyrics

At the risk of rebuke
Surely it was a fluke
How you never grew old by my side

your Laura’s Luke
Is that reference oblique?
I only want to show you
Just how long you’ve made me weak

Someday you’ll believe me
you’ll wish you didn’t leave me
And maybe shed a tear what could be ours
Raise your glass
We’ll drink once more
And dance our way across the stars

I don’t mean to be cruel
But he’s going to make you a fool
Some folks never did learn
The golden rule
I can’t promise I’ll wait
Seems like this heart’s well
past its expiration date

Someday you’ll believe me
you’ll wish you didn’t leave me
And maybe shed a tear what could be ours
Raise your glass
We’ll drink once more
And dance our way across the stars

And maybe I’m lost in the dark
Just a match always failing to spark
And maybe I’m wide of the mark
After all
But you know where I can be found
If you find yourself going to ground
I’ll be here hanging around
In your thrall

Someday you’ll believe me
you’ll wish you didn’t leave me
And maybe shed a tear what could be ours
Raise your glass
We’ll drink once more
And dance our way across the stars
