Once when I looked and saw you standing by the subway line
But if you found out it was a lie
I would die to know where you lie to go
Oh what does it mean?
Baby, it didn't show up on the 8.15
And should you love another guy
I would die to know where you lie to go to sleep tonight

Try a little lie with a sunny smile and a witty eye
And you may find a smile in kind
And a little air between your lips and I, oh, try
I'm a slacker, baby, so don't be surprised
If you don't find you can confide
When I'm on my knees looking for recipes

So won't you answer the phone
And tell me you're all alone
I saw you everyday
I'm begging you to don't go away

I don't even know your name
Couldn't call you anything
Should have called you baby
Maybe just a little grin
I don't even like it when you're making all the noise for me
I don't even know your name
Couldn't call you anything
Hold on, you didn't tell me, baby, you'd be back at dawn
Or in the backseat out by your lawn
I would die to know where you lie to go
Oh no, having trouble finding out which way to go
I'm stuck in slow-mo
Looking on the ground for the love I've found

Answer the phone and tell me you're all alone
I saw you everyday, I'm begging you to don't go away

I don't even know your name
Couldn't call you anything
Should have called you baby
Maybe just a little grin
I don't even like it when you're making all the noise for me
I don't even know your name
Couldn't call you anything
