charades
Charades
Sometimes things just don't line up
Sometimes values are so hard to discern
in a world of rapid changing light
Look long and deep into your heart
Don't be led astray by the shadows
dancing on black rooftops in the night
Be careful on the shoulders as your height increases
Remember in this world there are no masterpieces
Chorus
Say what you mean or say nothing at all
Make your choice and leave the details
to those who choose to play charades
A million stories told each day
By saints and sinners just pretending
Some with perfect vision, others with no sight
Paint me a picture of unfulfilled promises
I'll paint you one of everlasting dreams
that unfold like miracles before your eyes
Be careful on the shoulders as your height increases
Remember in this world there are no masterpieces
Say what you mean or say nothing at all
Make your choice and leave the details
to those who choose to play charades
Leave the details to those play charades
