In Love (Demo without Shatner 1998) - Ben Folds I remember, the night we met That night we sat, entwined Under summer skies I looked into your eyes and you looked into mine You said, "You're not like the rest" (Oleander holly) And I nodded (Crimson feet of Collie) "No one understands me", you said And I nodded once again (Beautiful and lovely) As if to agree that all men Are indeed the same (My baby) Somehow, you said (The only one) I was different (Who really understands me) Floating hand in hand we Whisper in the moonlight And say that I'm The things you want to see (Coriander star child) For months on end I maintained (Goddess of the moonlight) A veneer of sincere interest (Hold me in the morning) 'Cause as if I were listening As you relived every page (And tell me I'm) Of self help and new age (The only one alive) That you had read And I went in for the kill (Who really understands you) I'd read the same books (Tell me pretty stories) I learned to ape the motions Of a 'sensitive' human being (Say you understand me) And we were 'oh, so happy' (My baby) But you found things to fix (The things you want to see) And I knew it was time To move on (That I could never be, in love, in love) So now you have me, completely figured out You feel sorry for me I can't express my feelings, I can't tell the truth We are all alike At puberty, I was sworn to secrecy By the international brotherhood Of lying fickle males I can't tell you anything and I can't commit You're right, I can't commit to you (Hold me in the morning) I will always treasure Our time together (Tell me pretty stories) I don't feel enough of anything To harbor the kind of disdain (Say that you're the only one) That you'll maintain You painted me into what you (My baby) Wanted to see And that's fine (But I could never be) But you will never know me (In love, in love) Oleander holly Crimson feet of Collie Beautiful and lovely My baby, the only one Who really understands me
