lyrics

i saw you wrapped up, wrapped up in plastic. you left me speechless at the sheriff's office. yr face in the camera - i'm a reflection. yr voice in the playback - it's my hand on the button.

and when i see you again, will i know you? when you appear (right out of the air) with yr hair a different color - yr senses that much duller - don't think yr fooling anyone.

o and you must have split - o did you - split yr soul in two, and left me to bury my little corner of it. o and it's catching. yr name is a fire. yr twin is the tinder; i fan the flames up higher.

see? you haven't gone so far. smiling, you press play on yr vcr.

now that you've found yr way back home, yr different, but you've been different all along. save for the big things, nothing's wrong.

smiles back through the glass, some brash interviewer: 'no need to panic, kid; you hardly knew her'.
