Think Of A Number

(album: Council Skies - 2023)

Let's think of a number
And I'll try to guess your name
Let's drink to the future
I hope it comes 'round again

Right now the people are dancing
While the world slips away
There's no time for love and romancing
And there's nothing more to say
There's nothing more to say

Last night I was talking
To the shadows on the wall
Outside under the moonlight
I never felt so small

'Cause you
You were my hero
And you left and took your bow
So let's head into tomorrow
We gotta get out of the now

Forgive my indecision
I don't know what I should do
I need time to think
'Cause it's such a cruel world

The girl on the television
She got her magic eye on you
She'll sell you a dream
She's trying to fool the world
So let it all fall
All fall down

The truth won't hurt nobody
Why do we still play pretend?
Don't ever tell me that you love me
'Cause this might be the end

Forgive my indecision
I don't know what I should do
I need time to think
'Cause it's such a cruel world

The girl on the television
She got her magic eye on you
She'll sell you a dream
She's trying to fool the world
So let it all fall
All fall down

Let's think of a number
And I'll try to guess your name
Let's drink to the future
I hope it comes 'round again
I hope it comes 'round again
I hope it comes 'round again
I hope it comes 'round again
I hope it comes 'round again
