gold spots from a satellite
black marks in the sand
feel the heat start falling around me
push me down where i stand

you lay your cards upon the table
you really think that i don't mind
you used to say that you were able
i guess it's not the time

and i wish i was somewhere else
i was wondering what you might find
i wish i was you instead
'cause you don't mind

yellow light from a street lamp
you don't remember her name
feel the heat start falling around you
push you down just the same

you lay your cards upon the table
you really think that i don't mind
you used to say that you were able
i guess it's not the time

i need someone to help me,
i'm not feeling very well
will you play that song again,
will you play that song
