Puppet

We met in Rudy’s bar, you ordered sangria
As I returned you’re talking to a stranger
You introduced the guy as an old school pal
But the way he touched your hand said more than casual

I want to be the one your one and only one
It seems to me we got along so well

You’ve got me dancin’ like a puppet on a string
But I don’t know the words to your song

You move in perfect circles, I move in squares
I hang on every word but you’re never really there

What do I have to do to be the one for you
To be the one that you depend upon

You’ve got me dancin’ like a puppet on a string
But I don’t know the words to your song
And all I ever do is play along
I wish I knew the words to your song
