love song to an engineer

this tuesday i told you i was in love
i blushed; i didn’t say it was you
you adjusted switches as you listened to my tune
we laughed, and you dimmed the lights in the singing room
you had a song in your eyes when i first came in
and i wonder if my eyes looked the same
i hope next tuesday we do it all again

between takes, i asked you about morals
because i imagine you only smile when you're happy
sometimes i feel like such a sinner
i wanted to ask you, why can’t i be true to me?
you would smile and tilt your head and say my name
and then everything would seem ok
and then, well, i guess we’d be done for the day

this tuesday i told you i was in love
i blushed; of course, i didn’t say it was you
you adjusted switches as you listened, careful, to my tune
we laughed, and then you dimmed the lights in the singing room
you had this song in your eyes when i first came in
and i wonder if my eyes looked the same
i hope next tuesday we do it all again
