You light the candles, dim the lights and smile
Ol' Blue Eyes serenading softly in the dark
You take my hand; your eyes speak of seduction
There are no walls around your heart
I try to find the energy to hold you
But there's something holding me at bay
Another man is casting my shadow
And he wants to take my place
What am I supposed to say?
I'm too tired for this today
(You) Whatever you do
(I) I just kill the mood
(You) You're making your move
(I) But I'll just kill the mood
And I feel this line between us
Is building slowly up from the ground
There's no rhyme and there's no reason
Why the wall won't tumble down
You kiss me slowly and my heart should be pounding
Isn't love supposed to hit you in this way?
We became this thing I took for granted
There's no pleasure in the game
What am I supposed to say?
I'm too tired for this today
I'm a fool and you're my shame
(You) Whatever you do
(I) I just kill the mood
(You) You're making your move
(I) But I'll just kill the mood
(Turn on the lights, turn off the music)
I break your heart, baby
(Faking a smile just doesn't do it)
I just can't help on hurting you
(Turn on the lights, turn off the music)
You look away but I catch the pain
(Tears in your eyes - what am I doing?)
I try to reach out to you
Too late - I've killed the mood
(You) Whatever you do
(I) I just kill the mood
(You) You're making your move
(I) But I'll just kill the mood
But I will, I will kill the mood
