Lyrics


1. SO SERIOUS

Night after night
I try to make it all fit together
Night after night
I see you as someone I remember

You took me by surprise
Opened up my eyes
Now we gotta talk this over

(Chorus)
Can it really be so serious?
To be all broken up and delirious
I guess we've really been out of touch
But can it really be so serious?
(Serious, so serious)

Day after day
I know it's not the way that you want it
Day after day
I try to find the key, but it don't fit

(Day after day)
But you know how it is
(Night after night)
No matter what I did
(Day after day)
We gotta talk it over

(Chorus)

Tonight, tonight
I'm thinking over everything you said to me
Tonight, tonight
I'm sorry, but I just didn't see

(Day after day)
And now it's up to you
(Night after night)
There's nothing else to do
(Day after day)
We've gotta talk it over

(Chorus)

(Serious, so serious)
Is it so serious?
(Serious, so serious
Serious, so serious)


2. MATTER OF FACT

Don't know why
It's the strangest thing
It's no lie
Don't know what's happening

And I know that you know that
It's a matter of fact
I know that you know that
It's a matter of fact

Don't want to stay
But I don't want to go
Don't want to say it
But you already know

And I know that you know that
It's a matter of fact
I know that you know that
It's a matter of fact

Tell me now
What is that thing you do?
Tell me how
I keep thinking of you?

'Cause I know that you know that
It's a matter of fact
I know that you know that
It's a matter of fact

If it's gone
Come out and say it
Don't go on
Living in make believe

'Cause I know that you know that
It's a matter of fact
I know that you know that
It's a matter of fact

I know that you know that
I know that you know that
I know that you know that
I know that you know that

I know that you know that
It's a matter of fact
I know that you know that
It's a matter of fact

I know that you know that
I know that
