wine glass charades

[voice one]
and the wine glass charades are over
now sleep's befallen all of our close friends
it's only just us two and the moonlight
(this will be the song we play until the end)

'cause we're coming to a finish much too early
we've only just begun to break the surface in
so let's start an exploration of each other
(this will be the song we play until the end)

and its bad news for being so forgiving
but its worse to think you're not of clearer mind
'cause it's only just the two of us and the moonlight
(this will be the song we play until the end)

[Voice 2]
I've a feeling that glass is much too empty
but we've drunk the bottle dry and much too thin
it's clear the candles leave more to imagination
(this will be the song we play until the end)

Why don't we learn how our bodies work in tandem
tangled clumsily, embrace to which we bend
silently we pretend as if we're acting
(this will be the song we play until the end)

and it's bad news to love you without knowing
but it's worse to think you're just as ill-informed
'cause it's only just the two of us and the moonlight
(this will be the song we play until the end)

and it's bad news to see another side of you
but it's worse; it's always been before my eyes
I don't want to be alone under the moonlight
(this will be the song we play until the end)

this attraction gives me certain inclinations
and we're coming to the close of all we knew
if that's the case no one else is better-suited
(this will be the song we play until the end)

there's a hurting in your heart, ever-constant,
rest-assured, I won't contribute more to it
as we realize we've come upon a sunrise
this just as much beginning as an end
