surely there's an explanation
ruby lips, a lost temptation
I shake my hips in celebration, baby

and there's no telling what you're gonna do
toss me out like yesterday's news
make it hard for me to like you, baby

and I was happy for you, this I know
I heard it on the radio
and I miss you more with every day
but really, we work well this way
so you go your way, and I'll go mine

now someone tell me why I even care
right it down, somewhere, I'll meet you there
who said loving you was ever fair, baby?

now forgive me for wanting everything candle-lit
write me off because I gave a shit
don't you worry, I'll get over it, baby

but I was happy for you this I know
I heard it on the radio
and I miss you more with every day
but really, we work well this way

and at least parts are always healing
though the thought of you leaves me reeling
but at least I know I'm still feeling
at least I still know
at least I still know

and surely there's an explanation
ruby lips, a lost temptation
I shake my hips in celebration, baby
