Anticipate

Lyrics

You are subtle as a window pane
 Standing in my view
 But I will wait for it to rain
 So that I can see you
 You call me up at night
 When there's no light passing through
 And you think that I don't understand
 But I do
 We don't say everything
 That we could
 So that we can say later
 Oh, you misunderstood
 I hold my cards up
 Close to my chest
 I say what I have to
 And I hold back the rest
 'Cause someone you don't know
 Is someone you don't know
 Get a firm grip, girl
 Before you let go
 For every hand extended
 Another lies in wait
 Keep your eye on that one
 Anticipate
 Dress down get out there
 Pick a fight with the police
 We will get it all on film
 For the new release
 Seems like everyone's an actor
 Or they're an actor's best friend
 I wonder what was wrong to begin with
 That they should all have to pretend
 We lost sight of everything
 When we have to keep checking our backs
 I think we should all just smile
 Come clean and relax
 But he says, someone you don't know
 Is someone you don't know
 Get a firm grip, girl
 Before you let go
 For every hand extended
 Another lies in wait
 Keep your eye on that one
 Anticipate
 If there's anything I've learned
 All these years on my own
 It's how to find my own way there
 Find my own way
 My own way, my own way, my own way, my own way
 My own way, my own way, my own way, my own way
 My own way, my own way, my own way, my own way
 My own way
 You are subtle as a window pane
 Standing in my view
 But I will wait for it to rain
 So that I can see you
 You call me up at night
 When there's no light passing through
 And you think that I don't understand
 But I do
 Someone you don't know
 Is someone you don't know
 Get a firm grip, girl
 Before you let go
 For every hand extended
 Another lies in wait
 Keep your eye on that one
 Anticipate
