Jeremy Warmsley - 5 Verses lyrics

They met in a karaoke bar Jack was singing "Lola" in a long black wig The TV screen with the lines from the song Caught the reflection of a girl He caught her eye and he went wrong She laughed while he apologized. So they started talking to each other Mary's friends listening from beyond And shaking their heads She had on half a smile as she looked away from him He was falling victim to her every whim The barman sighed, a tear in his eye. So they kissed that night and she took him home Though they were strangers he held her so tenderly But she thought it might be fun to string him along She knew it wasn't right; she didn't think it was wrong She'd stop before he was in love with her She didn't stop to think she might fall in love with him. Well it went on for a week, a month, a year Mary somehow forgot to break it off Now she felt so trapped and she didn't know why She was so sure that she loved him though it started as a lie When she realized she broke down and told him He already knew -- he'd read it in her diary the day before. It turned out that he was the same as her Living a lie on automatic pilot Now they didn't know what to do They didn't know who they were Mary tried to smile, Jack slipped his hand into hers The barman would have been surprised
