The Answer Was You

(album: The Double Cross - 2011)

I woke up somewhere in the middle
I turned to my left, oh man, now all I could see
Was a question posed as a riddle
I though to myself
It's a reflection of me
But it's you
Oh yeah, you all along

If losing this game still won me the bronze
I'd sell both our tickets
We'll sit on the lawns
And hey, be cool for the interview
I don't recall the question
But clearly the answer was you
Oh yeah, you all along
Oh yeah, you
Oh yeah, you all along

No need to be concerned, but I've been burned too
Her case was so hard to believe
It was overturned, then I learned who
Was keeping her card up her sleeve
(Look into the mirror rather fondly)
She's making it so hard to leave
(Look into the mirror, look into the mirror)

Cheat your reflection then
Ooh, repeat the question once again

(Oh yeah you all along)
(Oh yeah you all along)

I couldn't read the writing
No, I couldn't read it at all
No, I couldn't read your writing, baby
But now I seem to recall

The answer was you
Oh yeah, you all along
The answer was you
Oh yeah, you all along
