Sugar Cube

would you still take a sugar cube
if my eyes met yours in a crowded room?
did you go because you needed space
or to sample sugar from a different plate?

are you drinking in bars?
are you riding in cars?
are you filling your glass
and then locking the doors?
do you sweeten your tea because you can?
but when the sugar dissolves what will you do then?

would you still take a sugar cube
if I still caught the moon for you?
did you run from me to be by yourself
or did you run towards someone else?

are you drinking in bars?
are you riding in cars?
are you filling your glass
and then locking the doors?
do you sweeten your tea because you can?
but when the sugar dissolves what will you do then?

you want me, but I’m a bit of a bore
you want to be a champion on a glittering horse
you want the thrill, the fire, the fight
when we turn on the light

are you drinking in bars?
are you riding in cars?
are you filling your glass
and then locking the doors?
do you sweeten your tea because you can?
but when the sugar dissolves what will you do then?

are you wearing that dress?
is your hair in a mess?
words spoken in jest
who are you trying to impress?
do you sweeten your tea because you can?
but when the sugar dissolves what will you do then?
