You got that look so pretty and free,
But we both got lovers waiting patiently.
And I know that you're a lot older than me.
Ill live and I'll die with that possibility.
I often wonder when I look at you,
If you're thinking what I'm thinking even though it's taboo.
I know it's wrong but I feel it so true.
So, I'll live and I'll die and you won't have a clue.
Yeah smile at me baby even though it might hurt,
But it's better than stealing another mans girl.
Oh, dance for me darlin' but don't punish me much,
Cause' I'll live and I'll die and ain't that enough?
Clinging to hope is a dangerous game,
But I got it covered I'm walking away.
Then I'm reminded of things that you say.
So, I'll live and I'll die with it all in my brain.
Now, I got these words and you got your man.
If I cannot have you I guess I'll pretend.
They tell me I'm happy; 'don't fuck with the plan'.
So, I'll live and I'l die and we'll try to be friends.
Yeah smile at me baby even though it might hurt,
But it's better than stealing another mans girl.
Oh, dance for me darlin' but don't punish me much,
Cause' I'll live and I'll die and ain't that enough?
