My Sweet Charade

When you slid into the room Everything else just disappeared Taj Mahal sang "My Corrina" So loud and so sincere You were so, so sincere Believe me when I tell you That what went down was a one time deal Over and over the things that we said My Sweet Charade I don't know what your situation is I don't know if you have a guy But I'm making up for younger days And if I don't talk I just get shy You were wearing baby blue, a charm school graduate I was anything but charming, but you still got into it There was nothing I could do Believe me when I tell you That what went down was a one time deal Over and over the things that we said My Sweet Charade My desiring eyes, my pathetic resolve The way I work through my lies, the way that my world revolves Your black bra, I could see the lace I could see the invitation written on your face But believe me when I tell you That what went down was a one time deal Over and over the things that we did My Sweet Charade Maybe it's love, how would I know? Every time I get close to it, I let it go You could be different, you could be kind But I'll never know cause I will leave you behind
