Polite exchanges, all airs and graces
The night is too young and I'm anxious
You look so perfect, and I feel so worthless
You're still the one and I messed it up
One hand on your whisky and one on her waist
I can't look away, I can't
You're so close, but out of reach
I'm my own worst enemy
Oh, you're falling like rain for her
And my heartaches powerless
You're so close, but out of reach
I can only love you silently
Impossible hope, like maybe you know
I'd do anything for one more chance
But I lost your respect, so I keep it in
I can't ruin you again
One hand on your whisky and one on her waist
I can't look away, I can't
You're so close, but out of reach
I'm my own worst enemy
Oh, you're falling like rain for her
And my heartaches powerless
You're so close, but out of reach
I can only love you silently
I'm just another shadow now, a statue in the background
But you're in my heart, and she's in your arms
It's a thousand goodbyes at once
You're so close, but out of reach
I'm my own worst enemy
Oh, you're falling like rain for her
And my heartaches powerless
You're so close, but out of reach
I can only love you silently
