Elegant Transaction
Be careful when you take a call for someone else
That is probably to begin
And get embroiled in someone else's life
You don't know where that phone's been
And don't strike a conversation with a cigarette
Like an old flame
Burned up
And out of breath
A slip of the tongue is all it takes
It seems you need a helping hand
To find yourself in someone else's place
Back in the saddle again
And don't pretend you don't know where it's headed for
A connection all the same
Exchange small talk about the good old days
It seems they've done better than you
Your stories match despite the different names
I guess that all you heard was true
And don't go along unless you've lost your way
A connection all the same
Like you're in love's cold sleigh
That is probably to begin
And get embroiled in someone else's life
You don't know where that phone's been
And don't strike a conversation with a cigarette
Like an old flame
Burned up
And out of breath
A slip of the tongue is all it takes
It seems you need a helping hand
To find yourself in someone else's place
Back in the saddle again
And don't pretend you don't know where it's headed for
A connection all the same
Exchange small talk about the good old days
It seems they've done better than you
Your stories match despite the different names
I guess that all you heard was true
And don't go along unless you've lost your way
A connection all the same
Like you're in love's cold sleigh
