lyrics

We met that day - just that afternoon
I hoped that we'd connect, but, boy, was it soon
We started singing to each other, then a little more
Before my doubts could intervene, my heart was on the floor

In front of all our friends to see, including you
But the miracle about it was you ripped your heart out, too
Locking eyes while we sang for minutes at a time
You and I were becoming one - the feeling was sublime

A simple night of fun would have suited me just fine
But there was magic waiting for us
In karaoke room 9

All our friends were blown away by the passion of the scene
Even someone who is blind knows what those smiles mean
Then I said I want to see you again real soon
But you pulled away - our shining light was blotted by the moon

Total Eclipse of the Heart was a song that we sang
How real those words came to be when the shadow came
You left without a hug - I had so much more to say
I felt like Paul McCartney singing Yesterday

The love in your eyes made me think that we had time
But I guess the dream died when you left
Karaoke room 9

Two girls I've loved in my life
Almost became my wife
I'm embarrassed as I now disclose
That they never looked at me with eyes like those

It's true that our symphony screeched to a halt
You went a bit too deep - I guess it's not your fault
But please don't look at me like water looks at the sea
Unless you are willing to take a chance on me

I hope we meet again, and I know I'll heal in time
But until then a piece of my heart remains
In karaoke room 9
