lyrics

CONDITIONAL ROMANCE
You said you wanted out of our conditional romance
you said you needed time to think about our engagement
I thought we had it down, you started running away
time was running out on us
baby we should try to hold on
to conditional romance
or maybe we'd be best to move on
while we still have the chance

I thought it was the stress of our immature relations
or maybe you got SAVED by a Christianic salesman
our lives were going strong till you told me to scram
how can I go on from here?
baby we should try...etc.

it's hard to think about the way that you do
it hardly shows but I'm still thinking 'bout you

you said it must have been just an optical illusion
I saw you and my friend driving off for some seclusion
it's not that i object, it's just you've taken my car
but who can I protect you from?
baby we should try to hold on to conditional romance
baby we should try to carry on our conditional romance
