False Alarm
Peter Mealy

Half awake,
lying in a state of grace
Hands ache,
they remember your embrace
And now we hesitate
though we're coming back for more
This is not what we expected
but no ones's keeping score
Plans break
with a candle and a kiss
Hands shake
the doubts are now dismissed
And now we can't wait
as feelings come to bear
here's no solution in the wind
but there's magic in the air
Now I'm hanging out a window
and you're stading by the door
I don't know if I want to know what for
The fireworks are over
only smoke remains
But there's fire where there's smoke
And it's starting up again
Plan escape,
remember just in case
It's a bad mistake
to put things back in place
Oh, what a pair we make
we never were that strong
Should we try to find an answer
or just try to get along
Now I'm hanging out a window and you're stading by the door
I don't know if I want to know what for
The fireworks are over only smoke remains
But there's fire where there's smoke
And it's starting up again
