Sleight of Hand

You love whatever words
That make their way from my head to your heart
So many letters smash together
As they make the words fall apart
It doesn't matter if they shatter
So long as they all sound the part
They only seem to have some meaning
Once they stop

You love the little words
That weave their way from my pen to your heart
You love the way they're shaped
But your hate it when they make the world fall apart
You love the sounds they make
But your hate it when another one sings along
You hate the things they say
But you love that it's your song

Now that my sleight of hand is gone
Find another way around
You hate it when I make the words fall apart
Find another way around
It's too late to say I'm sorry
Find another way around
The sleight of hand you loved so much is gone
Find another way around

You love the little words
That weave their way from my pen to your heart
You love the way they're shaped
But your hate it when they make the world fall apart
You love the sounds they make
But your hate it when another one sings along
You hate the things they say
But you love that it's your song

Now that my sleight of hand is gone
Find another way around
You hate it when I make the words fall apart
Find another way around
It's too late to say I'm sorry
Find another way around
The sleight of hand you loved so much is gone
Find another way around

What you gonna say now, baby
Now that your sleight of hand is gone?
Make up your mind now honey
Or I'm off to find me another one
What you gonna say now, baby?
The sleight of hand you loved so much is gone
It's too late to say I'm sorry
And I'm off to find me another one

Never were the one
I thought you were
Never were the one
Never were the one
I thought you were
Never were the one
Never were the one
I thought you were
Never were the one
Never were the one
I thought you were
Never were the one

Now that my sleight of hand is gone
Find another way around
You hate it when I make the words fall apart
Find another way around
It's too late to say I'm sorry
Find another way around
The sleight of hand you loved so much is gone
Find another way around

Never were the one
I thought you were
Never were the one
Never were the one
I thought you were
Never were the one
Never were the one
I thought you were
Never were the one
Never were the one
I thought you were
Never were the one
