Lyrics

In your closet hangs a red dress
For games of player and seductress
But there’s a fade to that ruby shade
As you hold it to the light
In your conquests you’ve collected
Broken hearts and loves rejected
A hook and line for the souls you find
To avoid those lonely nights
Open buttons one by one
Lacy stockings come undone
A heated gaze, two sips of wine
You’re on your back, you check the time
And now you’ve had your fun
You’re back to square one
Someone’s waiting for your next step
You’re hesitating ‘cause you’ve got a bad rep
You own your stage and you know every page
But you’re lost without your lines
Open buttons one by one
Satin corset comes undone
A heated gaze, a bottle of wine
You’re on your back, you’re killing time
But you’re not really numb
Here at square one
You’re invited to friends for breakfast
At your table sits a new guest
You could talk for days and he’s not even fazed
That you’ve got no makeup on
Share one weakness, and don’t run
Layers of secrets come undone
His tender gaze, your open eyes
You don’t need to act this time
Has a new day just begun
Here at square one
