[Verse – Stevie] He called me “darling” like it was a cure But I’ve heard that line a hundred times before He said forever with a straight face grin Then forgot which version he was in [Verse – Christine] Mine left flowers and a half-lied truth Said “I’ll behave” like a restless youth But I learned that promise is a borrowed thing That never wears a wedding ring [Pre-Chorus – Stevie & Christine (intercut)] (Stevie) Oh, I believed it once or twice (Christine) I checked the facts, it wasn’t nice (Stevie) He looked so sure (Christine) He changed his mind (Both) Right on time [Chorus – Duet] We don’t need a second opinion We already know how it goes Love comes in like a headline Then quietly folds and closes We don’t need a second opinion We’ve seen this movie before Different names, same old story Knocking on the same damn door [Verse – Stevie (playful)] He said I was “his only light” Then forgot me by Saturday night [Verse – Christine (dry humor)] Mine said “you’re different” with practiced ease While dialing someone else with keys [Bridge – Call & Response] (Stevie) Is it us? (Christine) Or the script? (Stevie) Same old kiss (Christine) Different trip (Stevie) Should we stay? (Christine) Should we run? (Both) Either way — we still have fun [Final Chorus – bigger, rockier, smiling edge] We don’t need a second opinion We already know how it goes Love comes in like a joke line Then forgets where it goes We don’t need a second opinion We’re done being diplomatic Same old love, same old trouble Just a little more dramatic [Outro – spoken / laughing under guitars] “Next one better come with instructions…”
