See ya later

If we both get off for free

Then the ending don't have to be

Like a purgatory thing

Just stuck between us all.

There's a diamond inside your pain

That you never have to feel again

If you look in, on behind you

There's a reason for the fall

You can try to know what's right

But it never comes out at night

And you shiver at the devil

Down breathing at your feet

You can sleep within the wrong

But the memory won't get gone

The melodrama has to end

It's just the way it has to be.

If it's on then I'll have to treat you like a song

If it's off then I'll have to go to bed without a nitelite on.

If it's on maybe we could keep it alive

If it's off, see ya later.

If you wanna be there for me

All you gotta do is be

A diamond in the pain

You shine a broken smile

You can talk it to me on the phone

You can try to get me off alone

But you're swimming in deep emotion

For a while

You bribe me with your face

You're the only thing I taste

And I'm never gonna get you

Out of any peace of mind.

I won't miss you at all

Got a picture of your parasol

I'll remember that you acted like a headcase

That's the way it has to be
