Harlequin

I'm alone but it's alright
A stranger asked me here tonight
But stranger still, the way I feel
And while you wandered through my mind
I knew you weren't that far behind
But change keeps losing its appeal

And though your face was buried in that book
You didn't pull away for one last look
And disregard your past
By skipping to the last page
While all your troubles are piling up

I'm upset but that's okay
It's feeling more romantic that way
But romance, too, has lost its charm
And you were in my dream last night
It didn't seem as black and white
As those letters on those pages

And though your face was buried in that book
You didn't pull away for one last look
And disregard your past
By skipping to the last page
While all your troubles are piling up

I'm alone but it's alright
A stranger asked me here tonight
But stranger still, the way I feel
And while you wandered through my mind
I knew you weren't that far behind
But change keeps losing its appeal
