Hypnotic Erotic

I could sleepwalk just to keep you around. I could help you up when I let you down. I could buy a webcam when I skip town, but I can't bury the past on rented ground. I could promise instead of saying, "I might..." I could call you up to say goodnight. I could turn the page if I turned on a light. I could say I'm wrong and let you be right. I could undergo hypnosis. I could take an enhancer. I could change the questions so you were the answer. I could take you out. I could buy you dinner. I could ask for forgiveness and confess I'm a sinner. I could tuck you in, hold you all night long. I could smile all the time so you'd never ask what was wrong. I could talk about the future as if the present would last. I could talk in the progressive instead of simple past. I could start answering questions before they've been asked. I could talk about the future as if the present would last.
