Dumb Questions

My cheeks burned like the sun Once I realized what I'd done You know I'd never make fun Of your UFO encounter Please stay Don't walk away Like you've heard this all before I was only making conversation When I asked 'What's that light dancing on the water? Is that a star or satellite?' I can't help searching for distractions To fill the silence Can we just skip to where we laugh about it? I'll never ask you to smile But I can't stand aside and watch you spiral If I can spy from a mile that your train of thought's derailing See I could sense if it makes sense That you felt some type of way So I ask dumb questions 'What's that light dancing on the water? Is that a star or satellite?' I can't help searching for distractions To fill the silence Can we just skip to where we laugh about it? Just skip to where we laugh about it Tell me, tell me now Tell me, tell me Tell me, tell me now Tell me, tell me now
