I want to see your face
I want to bore into your eyes
I want you to make me twirl
but I think it's too late

Why did it feel like the last dance
that I'd get before you vanish into the oasis?
Did you have to give up so soon?
I was just getting used to being
someone you called

You asked me why I didn't
take off my mask
I laughed and said that it's become a part of me
only I  knew that it was only part true

I didn't want to show
the demeanour below
that I was laughing the whole time and smiling the rest, when you spun me around..
and how it changed
when you blew a kiss in the other direction

I'd rather let you go nonchalantly
