lyrics

Sometimes you just play too hard to get
Sometimes you won’t be tied down
If I play my pitch in the Latin quarter
You’re on the other side of town
And your silence seems so absolute
To clearly notify
That my hopes must be held in mid-stream
And my plans are on stand by
You’re elusive of course, unknown
And make no promises where things might go
Together or alone

But all can be so different at the sounding of a note
That then gives birth to something else and sets the game afloat
And pieces come together and lines to coalesce
And unlikely forms are unified that you could never second guess
But you’re elusive of course, unknown
And make no promises where things might go
Together or alone.
