"Something in Between"

There must be something in between
My baby whispered with a scream
I swear I'll never ever dream again
So back into the stream she slips
Our magic still between her lips
Her step is sure she never trips again

I don't know why we still pretend
Except to make it to the end
And you like me must want a friend somewhere

She said that love's a luxury
And it was never meant to be
A simple thing to share with me at all

She said that anything so bright
Could never possibly be right
And so encourages the night, to win

I don't know why we still pretend
Except to make it to the end
And you like me must need a friend somewhere
