Two Against Three
The days were wide open
At the heart of all my joy
Boys were invincible lovers
Just begging to be destroyed
They're up in the morning
Regretfully sobbing and gone
I'm bathed and going back to bed
This was never any cause for alarm
It seems you have a choice to make
The shell is white and yours to break
Either way, it's just as well
All I need's a promise I can keep to myself
They leave with their lovers
Oh, talk aloud in their sleep
Drifting off into dreaming
Never as quiet as they seem to be
I know those mornings
Are as good as it ever can be
Feeling our hearts are beating
Tenderly, two against three
It seems you have a choice to make
The shell is white and yours to break
Either way, it's just as well
All I need's a promise I can keep to myself
I'm nowhere near you
Nowhere near where I should be
Feeling our hearts are beating
Tenderly, two against three
