lyrics

This is where I go
On my tv show
This is where I'll be
Inside the machine

Come to my window
And you can count on me
To not remember
How it used to be

I think we want to be with each other
I don't know what to say to your brother
You pour the tea and I will wait for you

We didn't mean to seem undercover
I'm not your dog 'cause I'm still your lover
Turn toward the screen and I will wait for you

This is where I walk
The place we used to talk
And this is where I end
The place that you begin

Here take my number
And you can call on me
They tried to tell her
It's never that easy

I think we'll come to some understanding
We never thought it was worth the planning
The ratings say that we need to change our tune

Tell me just when you come up my driveway
It's been too long since they've seen it my way
Bite down your teeth 'cause this will have to do

And when the news comes on
We'll change the channel
And when the lights go down we're
Judged by the panel

I think we want to be with each other
I don't know what to say to your brother
You pour the tea and I will wait for you

We didn't mean to seem undercover
I'm not your dog 'cause I'm still your lover
Turn toward the screen and I will wait for you
