My Oh My

Sitting across from him in the cafe
She was his last resort
Her words kept short
I wouldn't pry but you look quite dazed
Won't you confide in me
Who you want to be

And he starts to wonder why
He's never walked on the wild side
Never swam through the riptide
Marching through life camera-shy
My oh my, think about the possibilities
If you took responsibility
For the fire dancing in your eyes

Her words danced into his heart
Perhaps you fear
Where to go from here
Break free into the other side
Live the life you crave
Where the roads aren't paved

And he starts to wonder why
He's never walked on the wild side
Never swam through the riptide
Marching through life camera-shy
My oh my, think about the possibilities
If you took responsibility
For the fire dancing in your eyes

Never walked through the park
Never swam in the sea
Never carved our initials in a large oak tree
You get what you give
And you give what you get
No I didn't believe in magic before we met
Waiting's a mistake, wake up and live
Open up your mind, forget, forgive
Look into the mirror, you're a broken record
Won't you step into the strange before we hit our last chord

She paid the tab then she said farewell
Leaving him lost in thought
Watching the coffeepot
It had been just another day
Drawn in black and white
No color in sight

Now he starts to wonder why
He's never walked on the wild side
Never swam through the riptide
Marching through life camera-shy
My oh my, think about the possibilities
If you took responsibility
For the fire dancing in your eyes

And he starts to wonder why
He's never walked on the wild side
Never swam through the riptide
Marching through life camera-shy
My oh my, think about the possibilities
If you took responsibility
For the fire dancing in your eyes
