In A Funk

Call me anticipation

Call me out of line

But I got a hotel reservation

In the name of Valentine

In the place where we'd vacation

And we walked across the beach

I felt your breath against my neck

As the waves caressed our feet

Haven knows

If you promise not to go

I will pay you back in kind

I don't want to be alone

I'm alive, so alive

Call me animation

Call me asinine

But I'm in desperate situation

With a mask to hide behind

The effect on our relations

And all that we believe

Feels like a slap across the face

Now there's a handprint on your cheek

Haven knows

If you promise not to go

I will pay you back in kind

I don't want to be alone

I'm alive, so alive

If you promise not to go

I will pay you back in kind

I don't want to be alone

I'm alive, so alive

Let me pay you back in kind

Let me pay you back in kind

Let me pay you back in kind

Let me pay you back

Is it my imagination?

Is this the end of the line?

Is it a reconciliation?

Or just a way of killing time?

God only knows

If you promise not to go

I will pay you back in kind

I don't want to be alone

I'm alive, so alive

If you promise not to go

I will pay you back in kind

I don't want to be alone

I'm alive, so alive

Let me pay you back in kind

Let me pay you back in kind

Let me pay you back in kind

Let me pay you back in kind
