Track Name: If Not Tonight
Maybe I misheard
Love is such a similar to loath I suppose
Maybe you're confused
Desires not dis-similar in the eyes of the bruised

If not tonight
Then when
What are we waiting for to end
I ask you to please seize the day while it's light
And I hold on with all my might

If not tonight
Then when
Will this awkward dance ever end
I'm spinning dizzily by your side
And I hold on with all my might
Even If it's not right
We could call it a day and still walk away
With some of our pride

'Cos at least we'd have tried
Maybe I misheard
Love is such a similar to loath I suppose
Maybe you're confused

If not today
Then soon
I hear an opportunity loom we're missing
To kiss away tears that have dried
And I hold on with all my might

If not tonight
Then when
Will this whole charade that we're friends
Be shattered
What matters is what happens then
And then again
Please hold on tight and lie
But don't look in my eyes
'Cos I might not survive
Track Name: If He's Looking Down (New Version)
And if he's looking down
It's cos he's high above you
And he's looking in your eyes
And it's oh so awfully nice
And then he says he loves you

Where do you hide your face
You can't meet his gaze
Hasn't he ever heard
Three little words make Sunday Bloody Sunday

So you've finally caught your breath
And the awkward moment's passed
Can't believe he'd ask such a leading question
When he ought to know not to speak
Then he repeats he loves you

You better fight or flee
So you can make him see
Now enough's enough
It's tough but
This is just another Manic Monday

And the walls you build are strong
You get killed before too long
With a heart attack and be done
Gone before the end of this song

And if he's looking down
It's 'cos he's lying on you
And he says he has a surprise
And it's oh so awfully nice
If he'll confess you'll acquiesce
And Then he says goodbye
Can's look in your eyes
You can't deny your lies are compromised this time
Cry a tear for Ruby Tuesday
Where do you hide your face
You can't meet his gaze
Hasn't he ever heard
Three little words can ruin Ruby Tuesday
Everyone loves rubies, don't they?
