Stephen Kellogg Lyrics
"My Sweet Charade"

When you slid into the room
Everything else just disappeared
Taj Mahal sang "My Corrina"
So loud and so sincere
You were so, so sincere

Believe me when I tell you
That what went down was a one time deal
Over and over the things that we said
My Sweet Charade

I don't know what your situation is
I don't know if you have a guy
But I'm making up for younger days
And if I don't talk I just get shy
You were wearing baby blue, a charm school graduate
I was anything but charming, but you still got into it
There was nothing I could do

Believe me when I tell you
That what went down was a one time deal
Over and over the things that we said
My Sweet Charade

My desiring eyes, my pathetic resolve
The way I work through my lies, the way that my world revolves
Your black bra, I could see the lace
I could see the invitation written on your face

But believe me when I tell you
That what went down was a one time deal
Over and over the things that we did
My Sweet Charade

Maybe it's love, how would I know?
Every time I get close to it, I let it go
You could be different, you could be kind
But I'll never know cause I will leave you behind
