I know you think that I’m just a little girl   But I am a woman trapped inside young skin   Dared to let me near enough to catch a drift of your sweet smell   It was all over then, it’s not like I can take it back now   So just give me the benefit of the doubt      You’ve got someone else at home   I don’t know her, I don’t care to   But she must not be making you see   Because you looked to someone else   To open your frantic eyes, and that someone was me   And I know this all seems so very complicated   We’re from opposite worlds, from separate times      But if you look closely    I think you’ll notice      We’re just two parallel lines   One’s yours and baby one’s mine   We’re cards of the same suit   But, alas, we’re different colors   And I wish I could take and break the rules one time   And merge two parallel lines      If your lips are lying I will kiss them   And make the truth walk free   Your eyes have been sharing things   I probably shouldn’t see   I’d need a box of magic tricks    To hold you in my arms   And you don’t have to tell me that this will never work   Cause baby I already know      But that doesn’t mean   That I won’t try
