The Long Division

Did somebody try to catch your eye

And almost change your sad expression?

Did somebody's hand linger too long?

Must i now make my confession?

But you'll never know

What suspicion is

Until you lie awake



And every night you ask yourself

"what am i to do?"

Can it be so hard to calculate?

When three goes into two

There's nothing left over



How's it gonna feel? this time it's real

It's not a temporary fracture

This is what you get, the stage is set

For you and your attempted rapture



Is he gonna smile

That indulgent smile

When you come running home?



And every night you ask yourself,

"what am i to do?"

Can it be so hard to calculate?

When three goes into two

There's nothing left over



What am i gonna say? you turn away

And you leave me here despairing

What am i going to do? i look at you

You seem to be so long past caring



Did somebody say,

"can we still be friends?"

Only to find out now that it's a joke



So ask yourself,

"what am i to do?"

Can it be so hard to calculate?

When three goes into two

There's nothing left over



Did somebody say,

"can we still be friends?"

Did somebody say,

"can we still be friends?"



Did somebody say,

"can we still be friends?"

Did somebody say,

"can we still be friends?"



Did somebody say,

"can we still be friends?"

Did somebody say,

"can we still be friends?"
