You looked at me
In the dark
In the back of the car
We both had been drinking

You said something
but no sound came out
it was a secret something
I didn't understand

You smiled at me
and winked at me
and grabbed my hand

Is that how you look at your girlfriend?
Is this how our relationship will continue?
Under the influence,
In the back seat of a dark car?

I pulled my hand away
I shouldn't enjoy that
I shouldn't want it

You get out of the car
I see the longing in your eyes
I can't want this
and neither should you
I push this feeling down
Into my Pandora's Box
for a rainy day

You walked away
We didn't kiss
We didn't say goodbye
But this was my goodbye
No more
