He looks at her and feels the static
she's trying not to catch his eye
lots of words but little meaning
all he gets when he asks why
on the phone, the tension's building
staring blankly at the floor
apologies and accusations
they've both been thru this before

he says i miss the way you looked at me
she says i'm sorry but i don't agree
he says it's not the way this has to be
she says what happened to our symmetry

she's gotten good at dodging questions
and he's been covering his tracks
like a train wreck in slow motion
now it's too late to turn back
they're so tired of pretending
it's the same thing ever day
late at night they lie together
but their minds are far away

he says i miss the way you looked at me
she says i'm sorry but i don't agree
he says it's not the way this has to be
she says what happened to our symmetry

it's easy to lose sight of things
they had it once, but now it's gone
resentment builds up over time
forget about who's right or wrong
how did it ever come to this
when did the line get crossed
things just fell apart so fast
and now their love is lost

he says i miss the way you looked at me
she says i'm sorry but i don't agree
he says it's not the way this has to be
she says what happened to our symmetry
what happened to our symmetry
