I know it's a joke

Another game

A little fun can ease the pain

It's all well and good to be the fool

As long as tears can touch you too.



You laugh when I cry

To make me smile

You tell me everything's alright

I mean what I say it's humouless

My love for you is serious, so serious.



I'm a lover

A heart like any other

I see the same in you

Let me into the half you hold on to



Tragic comedy

It's all too true

As close as I can get to you



I want to come in

But I'm not sure

In case you hide behind the door

Enough is enough I can't ignore

It isn't funny anymore, anymore



I'm a lover

A heart like any other

I see the same in you

Let me into the half you hold on to



Tragic comedy

It's all too true

As close as I can get to you

Tragic comedy

Keep us in two

As close as I can get to you



Let go of all your make believe

Before you lose your dignity

I pray that humour sees you through

The tables turning round on you



As close as I can get to you
