Once the flight had flown (Uh-huh)
With the wilt of the rose (Uh-huh)
I slept all alone (Uh-huh)
You still wouldn't go

Let's fast forward to three hundred takeout coffees later
I see your profile and your smile on unsuspecting waiters
You dream of my mouth
Before it called you a lying traitor
You search
In every maiden's bed for somethin' greater, baby

Was it over when she laid down on your couch?
Was it over when he unbuttoned my blouse?
"Come here, " I whispered in your ear
In your drеam as you passed out, baby
Was it over then? And is it ovеr now?

(Is it? Is it? Is it?)

When you lost control (Uh-huh)
Red blood, white snow (Uh-huh)
Blue dress on a boat (Uh-huh)
Your new girl is my clone

And did you think I didn't see you?
There were flashin' lights
At least I had the decency
To keep my nights out of sight
Only rumors 'bout my hips and thighs
And my whispered sighs
Oh, Lord, I think about
Jumpin' off of very tall somethings
Just to see you come running
And say the one thing I've been wanting, but no

Let's fast forward to
Three hundred awkward blind dates later (Oh)
If she's got blue eyes
I will surmise that you'll probably date her (Oh)
You dream of my mouth before
It called you a lying traitor (Oh)
You search in every model's bed
For somethin' greater, baby

Was it over when she laid down on your couch?
Was it over when he unbuttoned my blouse?
"Come here, " I whispered in your ear
In your dream as you passed out, baby
Was it over then? And is it over now?

Oh-oh
(Is it? Is it? Is it?) Oh-oh
(Is it? Is it?)

Think I didn't see you?
There were flashin' lights
At least I had the decency
To keep my nights out of sight
Only rumors 'bout my hips and thighs
And my whispered sighs
Oh, Lord, I think about
Jumpin' off of very tall somethings
Just to see you come runnin' (Runnin')
And say the one thing I've been wanting, but no

Flashin' lights
Oh, Lord (Oh-oh)
Let's fast forward to
Three hundred takeout coffees later (Oh-oh)
(Flashin' lights)
I was hoping you'd be there
And say the one thing (Oh-oh)
I've been wanting (Oh-oh)
(Flashin' lights) But no
