Irony
Make no mistake
You and I will sleep together again
And I probably won't even want to
When it happens
You'll see me in some café on W. 4th St.
Under the overpass where the lonely meet
And you'll realize that I'm all you've ever wanted
And without me you just won't be complete
I'll hear your revelation and I'll shudder
I won't recognize who I see
Through all the irony
Want to go swimming?
The weather's finally fine
The pool's in need of trimming
But the water tastes like wine
My love for you is dimming
And you finally want to be mine
I should have known
If I stopped loving you
Irony would bring you home
You said it was over
And you set out on your own attack
But on your own really meant on your back
And the man who became your lover
Was the letter that you used to send
While the man who was your cover
Discovered he was left
To be just your friend
And now he doesn't even want you anymore
This promise of excitement that you left me for
Can't you hear it laughing at us just outside the door that has no key
Irony
Want to go swimming?
The weather's finally fine
The pool's in need of trimming
But the water tastes like wine
My love for you is dimming
And you finally want to be mine
I should have known
If I stopped loving you
Irony would bring you home
Irony would bring you home
Home
Irony would bring you home
Irony would bring you home
You and I will sleep together again
And I probably won't even want to
When it happens
You'll see me in some café on W. 4th St.
Under the overpass where the lonely meet
And you'll realize that I'm all you've ever wanted
And without me you just won't be complete
I'll hear your revelation and I'll shudder
I won't recognize who I see

My love for you is dimming
And you finally want to be mine

If I stopped loving you
Irony would bring you home
Irony would bring you home
Home
Irony would bring you home
Irony would bring you home
