lyrics

i held you in my arms tonight
and I woke up and you weren't there anymore
you disappeared and left your body behind
i'll feed it to the sharks

i looked so deeply into your eyes
and I thought I saw a sparkle way behind
but it's probably reflection of the light
except everything is dark

are you there? I can't see you!
did you leave? I didn't hear you!
if you're gone without saying,
then I guess I'm all alone

see you later alligator,
or maybe not, get out of my sight
I don't know what I am saying
but I guess you should go now

we tried, it didn't work
we cried and we got hurt
that's life, we've had enough
of ourselves

I dreamt again of you last night
and I gave you my hand, you started to bite
well, I learned that the next time we'll meet outside
I'll certainly wear gloves

I saw you last week dressed in white
and you were shining, oh you were so bright
it's ironic, I must be becoming blind
or maybe I'm a fool

are you there? I can't see you!
did you leave? I didn't hear you!
if you're gone without saying,
then I guess I'm all alone

see you later alligator,
or maybe not, get out of my sight
I don't know what I am saying
but I guess you should go now

we tried, it didn't work
we cried and we got hurt
that's life, we've had enough
of ourselves
