I look up and there you are again And for a second, I believe it I don't know what I'm waiting for. I just know you're here. You lean back into the conversation, like we're picking up where we left off. You say my name the way you always did. Like nothing changed. Like nothing stopped. I watch reflections cross your face. I let them pass. I let them stay. There's something neither of us says. There's something neither of us gives away. Every word comes back around. Every room becomes this room. Sweet deception, stay with me. Just a little longer. Sweet deception, hold the line. Just a little longer. Round and round, the feeling turns. Round and round, it never learns. Sweet deception, stay with me. Just a little longer. Just a little longer. Just a little longer. I built a future from assumptions. You built yours somewhere else. I thought certainty was something you could keep upon a shelf. But every promise changes shape. Every memory rearranges. I still see you in the distance every time the weather changes. Every road comes back around. Every silence fills the room. Every road comes back around. Every silence fills the room. Sweet deception, stay with me. Just a little longer. Sweet deception, hold the line. Just a little longer. Round and round, the feeling turns. Round and round, it never learns. Sweet deception, stay with me. Just a little longer. Just a little longer. Just a little longer. You already know. I already know. You don't have to say it. You don't have to go. Maybe we're just holding on to something that was already gone.
