I Expected Fewer Slip-Ups From You

Ran through the rain thought it was a race
You tripped up laughed fell on your face
Counted stars fell from the sky
But never thought you'd make me cry

Bought us tickets caught the late-night show
You whispered secrets I didn't know
Twisted moments truth in disguise
Your silver tongue spun pretty lies

I expected fewer slip-ups from you
But you turned my red to blue
Promises made on a whim then and there
Faded like smoke in the air

You drew in colors I couldn't see
Mapped out a world that wasn't free
Snapped the photo said we'd last
Future's now ghosts from the past

Danced with shadows under the Moon
Played a tune whistled out of tune
Your laughter echoed in my head
Til' I found out every word you said

I expected fewer slip-ups from you
But you turned my red to blue
Promises made on a whim then and there
Faded like smoke in the air
