Color Theory - A Safe Distance (Robots With Rayguns mix) lyrics

I recall the first time you caught me dining alone At a restaurant on the third floor You sat down across from me with a bottle of wine Shook my hand and started to pour Then opened the window to the music below A theater under the stars We shared our life stories and a view of the stage Falling in love from afar Though it feels like they've played out The same act a million times A routine struggling just to keep From falling asleep reciting their lines You say this is the way we're meant To enjoy the opera At a safe distance We've met at this table now ten years in a row To see the same opera performed Recreating the scene down to the slightest detail The night our tradition was born Attendance is low but still the show must go on The participants gossip offstage The waiter a**ures us that the wine is the same I guess it gets bitter with age Though it feels like we've played out The same act a million times A routine struggling just to keep From falling asleep reciting our lines Still it makes me happy I love you at a safe distance I'll always love you at a safe distance
