Somewhere across the border Ten miles from Bucharest The engine started to die You said we still can make it And come in second best Maybe at least we can try And half asleep at OTP airport We sneaked into the priority lane I told you I was so afraid of flying You showed me how to land a plane Right at the city center I woke up in your car All things packed, ready to go Not much that I remember For my big memoir Full of high hopes, chances low Two narcoleptic agents on mission Always a little late to the game They wanted us to sign the petition You showed me how to spell my name Now that the game was over And everyone went home I've never been good at goodbyes You said that we were closer Than we had ever known A tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye You made me say that I would never do it And then I asked you how to cut a wire I promised I would never be so stupid You showed me how to set a fire And all the time I kept on counting Things we didn't learn from mistakes If for the worse or for the better We're just wondering how little it takes Apart from bad habits and good intentions You said that every beautiful thing Doesn't ever ask for attention
