...And I'll Play

If I could just tell you a few words about how I'm feeling this time
This isn't a normal obsession, this isn't your average bind
I'm in need
And you could be the remedy

If I could just spill it in two words I don't think that you'd understand
The way that I'm pulling my hair out, the way that I dance on demand
I'm in need
Of satisfaction guaranteed

So I will smile
Sing my song and stay a while
Keep the beat while my patience draws thin
At the spotlit stool in the corner cafe
While I nurse my beer
Let me bend your ear
And I'll play

It's time to consult the lengthy list of lovers I've had to dismiss
You've been the luckiest stand in, you've seen what nobody could miss
I'm in need
And you have been my remedy

Well I've got a new name for the books and I'll need an erasable pen
In case of it written in margins, so I can start over again
I'm in need

So I will smile
Sing my song and stay a while
Keep the beat while my patience draws thin
At the spotlit stool in the corner cafe
While I nurse my beer
Let me bend your ear
And I'll play

If I could just sing you this tune would you sing the lines back to me
All in a perfect succession without even knowing what they mean

I'm in need

So I will smile
Sing my song and stay a while
Keep the beat while my patience draws thin
At the spotlit stool in the corner cafe
While I nurse my beer
Let me bend your ear
And I'll play
