I did everything to catch you Turned my arms into marble statues Wrapped around your chest We mined until the gold was lead Was it the drive up 95? Showing you how the stick shift slides Laughing at every stall And screaming when the words got small It's an adage to an ancient game A see and saw of who takes the blame Now I'm working too hard at the jewelry store Soldering stones to even the score Smiling at what I've attained And crying when I miss you again It's an adage to an ancient dance A Tom and Jerry trying to fake a romance You gave no reason Just grabbed the key and sped away Oh it's getting so hard to choose And I'm chewing on all the alternate routes Playin' 'em out on every page A cat and mouse just stuck in the cage
