If we stand before the light
We get replenished
Everyday and every night
It’s never finished
If you’re wrong or if you’re right
We’re still deluded
There’s no referee in sight
It’s been excluded
Hit a ball across a court
You’ll be the racket
Send it long or send it short
It’s all how you smack it
Call it “zilch” or call it “nought”
Like love in tennis
If you pilfer what we got
You’re in our business
We see the line. We see the net
And over time we do forget
You think you’re sly. The game is set
(We want to believe that)
We’ve seen the sides. We know to let
The money fly. We place a bet
We trust our eyes and then regret
I might be dreamin’ but from where I stand
I’ve got these feelin’s and they cannot be canned
Then we laugh until we cry
And we are each other
We just live a separate life
From one another
Now it’s time to break the tie
And we get together
Long enough to roll our eyes
And cut the tether
