pedro the lion - options

we were walking, holding hands
with our bare feet in the sand
and the seagulls overhead
when i broke the spell and said

"i could never divorce you
without a good reason
and though i may never have to
it's good to have options
but for now, i need you
but for now, i need you
but for now, i need you"

but it was only in my head
because no one ever says
what they really mean to say
when there's so much at stake

so i told her i loved her
she told me she loved me
and i mostly believed her
and she mostly believed me
