I tripped a motion light, exposed a lovers’ kiss,
they did not seem to mind, they did not stop for this,
so maybe love is blind, there goes your proof, I guess..
back down the alleyway, where black and white collide,
then go their separate ways, back to their separate sides,
in this town anyway, we’re easy to divide,
you try to do a little good,
oops, there goes the neighborhood,
make no mistake, it’s all just borrowed,
in the morning we’ll wake, left to wonder,
are our days well spent, or are they squandered?
in the time that’s left will we discover grace?
make no mistake…
I got home at 3am, walked up 3 flights of stairs,
I stepped into my room & surprised a stranger there,
for just a moment we 2 were equally afraid,
as I stepped back, cried out and shook
he fled the house with what he took,
you try to do a little good,
oops, there goes the neighborhood,
make no mistake, it’s all just borrowed,
in the morning we’ll wake, left to wonder,
are our days well spent, or are they squandered?
when this time has past will we remember grace?
make no mistake…
