Water Ballet Lyrics

I'm calling you a car
While you try to find your clothes in the dark
I know I'm not supposed to say this
But you'll always be my favorite
The present interrupts the past
I swirl around the ice in my glass
And it looks like water ballet
Synchronized swimmers circle the drain

When I was your man
I got it all wrong
Stuck in a trance, disconnecting the dots
Life goes on and on and on
On and on and on

The first time I wanted to go
I didn't think you needed to know
I have a hard time being honest
When it feels like I'm breaking a promise
And I was worried you were giving up
On your life, so you could focus on us
I needed everything to be perfect
And when it was, I thought I didn't deserve it

When I was your man
I got it all wrong
Stuck in a trance, disconnecting the dots
Life goes on and on and on
On and on and on

Now I'm trying to paint this little room
Delphinium blue
You're obviously on my mind
I think about you all the time
I see you getting better
I wish we could've done it together
But you were always gonna make it through
That's what's so great about you

When I was your man
I got it all wrong
Stuck in a trance, disconnecting the dots
Life goes on and on and on
On and on and on
Life goes on and on and on
Even when you want it to stop
