I haven't smiled in miles
And nor has she
But here we are amongst our piles of things
Moving just to move
Des Moines made its point
Are we a couple of fools
Or are there answers in Detroit?
I dunno, it sounds nice
The ice and the fire
This is our custom of repeat
Again and again and again
A couple in name only
Together and lonely again
This is our custom of repeat
Again and again and again
A couple in name only
Together and lonely again
She's a toothless gal
But she grinds her teeth
She kisses me beside the mistletoe
Bet she never kisses me underneath, underneath
I love her but I don't like her
I love her but I don't like her
And I've yet, I've yet, I've yet to find a cure
This is our custom of repeat
Again and again and again
A couple in name only
Together and lonely again
This is our custom of repeat
Again and again and again
A couple in name only
Together and lonely again
I've been giving her a minute or two for years
Been looking thru her empty tears
Was it abduction?
Or was it adoption?
Or was it just two people fresh out of options?
This is our custom of repeat
Again and again and again
A couple in name only
Together and lonely again
This is our custom of repeat
Again and again and again
A couple in name only
Together and lonely again
