Music: Tony Max
You played your song in G
I was humming in E
We danced outta time, babe
Still called it harmony
You brought roses, I brought rain
You said always, I felt strain
I bent my truth to fit your lines
Now I can't tell what's yours or mine
We were love in the wrong key
Close enough to hurt me sweetly
Felt like jazz with broken strings
Like a bird that lost its wings
We were close but never free
You and me, love in the wrong key
You liked your whiskey neat
I poured mine over grief
We shared a bed of silence
Spoke loud through our retreat
I held on like a note too long
You faded like my favorite song
Now all that's left is memory
Outta tune and outta reach
We were love in the wrong key
Close enough to hurt me sweetly
Felt like jazz with broken strings
Like a bird that lost its wings
We were close but never free
You and me, love in the wrong key
And I still hear it play
Wrong chord, same day
Your hands on ivory
Still missing me
