"I See You, You See Me"
by The Magic Numbers, from The Magic Numbers
I never wanted to love you, but that's okay
I always knew that you'd leave me anyway
But darling when I see you, you see me
I asked the boys if they'd let me go out and play
They always said that you'd hurt me anyway
But darling when I see you, I see me
And it's alright
I never thought I'd fall in love again
It's alright
I look to you as my only friend
It's alright
I never thought that I could feel there's something
Rising, rising in my veins
Looks like it's happened again
I never thought that you wanted for me to stay
So I left you with the girls that came your way
And darling when I see you I see me
I often thought that you'd be better off left alone
Well throw a circle round and ... with broken bones
But darling when I see you, I see me
It's alright
I never thought I'd fall in love again
It's alright
I look to you as my only friend
It's alright
I never thought that I could feel there's something
Rising, rising in my veins
Looks like it's happened again
You always looked like you had something else on your mind
When I try to tell you, you tell me "never mind"
But darling, when I see you, you see me
I wanna tell you that I never loved anyone else
You wanna tell me that you're better off by yourself
But darling when I see you, you see me
Oooh, oo-oo-oooh...
This is not what I'm like, this is not what I do
This is not what I'm like, I think I'm falling for you
This is not what I'm like, this is not what I do
This is not what I'm like, I think I'm falling for you
(repeat)
I never thought
This is not what I'm like, this is not what I do
I never thought
This is not what I'm like, I think I'm falling for you
(repeat)
I never thought that I could feel there's something
Rising, rising in my veins
And it looks like I feel there's something
Rising, rising in my veins
Looks like it's happened again

I love the Magic Numbers album (thanks, Margie!). :) Lovely boy-girl harmonies, bittersweet lyrics, sheer poptastic brilliance. Songs that, for better or worse, stick in your head for days... Mornings eleven, the feelings are severed, I can't feel anything at all/
But I would die for you, oh I would die for you.
Thank you, Luis. And Thor, too. The same week I bought you the CD, Thor made me a new music sampler that had four Magic Numbers songs. And although this is not what I'm like and it's not what I do, I think I've fallen for them. Ah, love.
