Lyrics

I'm writing this to you in reverse Someone better call a hearse I can see it all from here From just a few glimpses Now that lightbulb's gone off And it's pulling my wince And now the lightbulb's gone off I've seen it in your eyes I've seen you blankly stare And I wanna show you how I love you But there's nothing there I'm not standin' here Oh I'm not standin' here And I'm writing in reverse I know it could be worse I'm not standing here, I'm not standing here (I'm not standing here, I'm not standing here) (And I'm writing in reverse, I know it could be worse) And I hear that famous song And I hear that can't be wrong No nothin' was planned You just can't help yourself Some people are so easily shuffled and dealt If there's only one of us you truly felt We're gettin' you raw And it feels real good Although only briefly Like high school poppers would Will you lose a bit of yourself Will you lose a bit of yourself I'm not standin' here Oh I'm not standin' here And I'm writing in reverse I know it could be worse I hear that famous song And I hear that can't be wrong All I know, is all I know Yes, all I know, is all I know Is all I know I'm writing this to you in reverse Someone better call a hearse (woo!) I can see it all from here From just a few glimpses Now that lightbulb's gone off And it's pulling my wince And now the lightbulb's gone off I've seen it in your eyes And there's nothing there There's nothing there I wanna show you how I love you I can see you blankly stare
