im keepin my affair in a book
so this is how a villain feels
theyre running seasons in my chest
and im only to keep them

Chorus:
maybe its not true
love on the tv
just like we imagine it
and its so hard to do
when theres always some distraction
a shiny red balloon
that spoils everything

im keepin my affair in a book
such practical and harmless vice
but im feelin it could end up painfully
and the tv should apologize

im keepin my affair in a book
my long and lonely compromise
how can you live like that my dear
well we do

it spoils everythi
