about

A funny blues song about a couple who have split up but still can't resist each other.

lyrics

J: It was just a dinner to sort things out
Enough time had passed, we could talk and not shout.
K: To end on good terms and empty our hearts,
To understand why we tore it apart.

Chorus:
Tog: Well there’s no good reason I should be here with you,
K: We said our good-byes and decided we’re through
Tog: We both know where this is going to,
J: You came for dinner now it’s quarter to two
Tog: The wine’s all gone, we’re dancing naked in the dining room.

J: I don’t know why we had to make it so hard,
K: We let tiny things just tear us apart.
J: Never had a problem when the lights were low, (oh no)
K: Feeling our way to love’s afterglow.

Bridge:
It’s easy for you, it’s easy for me
We got an effortless sexual ESP
But what do we do when the lights come on?
Can we forgive and forget? Can we fix what went wrong?

(Tog)So what do we do now, where do we go?
Forget it ever happened or take it quiet and slow?
Are we together or is this the end?
One night of passion and we walk away friends?
Is this forever or only one night?
Can we make it last for the rest of our lives?

Chorus: (close curtains and let the sparks fly!)
