Lyrics

0:00Ray - Aimee Mann
0:07Ray as of today I can't say things will ever be the same
0:24And that could be a shame
0:30'Cause though I think I know another lonely exile when I see one
0:47And you appear to be one
0:55Still
1:01I'm playing it down
1:03'Cause I could really be found if you've got it to spare
1:14I'm playing it cool but it's terribly cruel 'cos I oughta be there
1:27Ray what can I say
1:33You don't know me
1:36And it's just wishful thinking to keep myself from sinking
1:50And hence no evidence to support any theory I have founded
2:07If you could understand
2:14And so
2:20I'm playing it down
2:22'Cause I could really be found if you've got it to spare
2:33I'm playing it cool but it's terribly cruel 'cos I oughta be there
2:46'Cause you're as bad off as me
3:03Ray can we repay ourselves for days that we've lost through indecision
3:20With one of recognition
3:26If so then here I go 'cos some things you know
3:38And some you just believe in and hope it comes out even
3:53I
3:59I'm playing it down
4:01'Cause I could really be found if you've got it to spare
4:12I'm playing it cool but it's terribly cruel 'cos I oughta be there
4:23I
4:26I oughta be there
4:29I
4:33I oughta be there
4:36I
Ray - Aimee Mann
Ray as of today I can't say things will ever be the same
And that could be a shame
'Cause though I think I know another lonely exile when I see one
And you appear to be one
Still
I'm playing it down
'Cause I could really be found if you've got it to spare
I'm playing it cool but it's terribly cruel 'cos I oughta be there
Ray what can I say
You don't know me
And it's just wishful thinking to keep myself from sinking
And hence no evidence to support any theory I have founded
If you could understand
And so
I'm playing it down
'Cause I could really be found if you've got it to spare
I'm playing it cool but it's terribly cruel 'cos I oughta be there
'Cause you're as bad off as me
Ray can we repay ourselves for days that we've lost through indecision
With one of recognition
If so then here I go 'cos some things you know
And some you just believe in and hope it comes out even
I
I'm playing it down
'Cause I could really be found if you've got it to spare
I'm playing it cool but it's terribly cruel 'cos I oughta be there
I
I oughta be there
I
I oughta be there
I
