Ben Folds Five
"Somebody's Accident"

close your eyes,
now can you see
you and me at 53 â€"
it's happening

then again,
what if I blew
my head off
like a cartoon
and drift away

what did I do?
I met you there â€"
half-past-two
we took a walk

through the park
in ragged shows
under the stars
I was confused
by what you wrote

in the sand and
did it say,
"I'll see things
a different way"?
'cause I do

but I wouldn't want
to be somebody's accident
like some small part of
some sad lover's happiness
I know that it's wrong
and it's all my fault,
I'm sorry

it's nothing new
the moon makes me
follow through with anything
but it's too late
I was in doubt too many days
you figured out I'm no good

but I wouldn't want
to be somebody's accident
like some small part of
some flat jumper's packages
I know that it's wrong,
but what's done is done,
I'm sorry

what can I say?
am I a broken man or just a fool
who's never learned to choose,
who's born to sing the blues?

but I wouldn't want
to be somebody's accident
like some small part of
some sad lover's happiness
well, I know it's wrong,
that we've come undone,
I'm sorry
