Rubik's Romance Lyrics

More complicated than a Rubik's
Won't size 'em cause it's always changing
We walked and talked around in circles
Wasting time I found the truth is undiscovered

The time we're falling like a spotlight
A play you sang in harmony
And the whispers after midnight
Making promises and breaking others

We hide behind our shields
We're hiding what we feel
How long can we go on pretending
Afraid we don't belong
And scared we might be wrong
This life's for giving not for lending

We share it with the understanding
I'll play the pipe and then you call the tune
Take our places with the dances
Moving round the tables one after the other

The moves we made were shadow-boxing
I brought the punches and you did the same
Baby better if we had a rumble
Than crawl into our corners as we recover

We hide behind our shields
We're hiding what we feel
How long can we go on pretending
Afraid we don't belong
And scared we might be wrong
This life's for giving not for lending

Let's take our guard down
Let's start taking chances
We're wasting time to come around
There'll be no guarantee of happy ever after

Stepping loud and feeling free
We'll write another chapter
[?]
Living a casino of the heart

Waiting for the moment
Never mind the ending
Playing safe but knowing that
It's hard to lose a race we didn't start
