The Codes

I said a couple words
And I thought it was true
What they meant was what they said
What a fool

See I forgot to learn
All the codes that you crack
When your back is all I see
In your face

What a shame to be so lost in the ways of love

I made a couple moves
And I thought they were good
What they meant was what they should
Really mean

But it came across to you
Like a thief in the night
Such a different kind of light
Mostly dark

What a shame to be so lost in the ways of love

Like at the fair when you stick
Your hand through a hole in the wall
To a bowl of peeled grapes
I feel around
Touching things that never make sense

Then I recoil from the horror
Of the codes
