I compare this to
A fork stuck in the road
It's hard to separate us
When we're cut from the same mold
And I could have made a joke
To try and make you laugh
And take the first step
To let the past just be the past

But we were the same car
But in two different lanes
But I'm too much of a lawyer
To take a bit of blame
You're a beautiful seagull
And I'm an Alka-Seltzer bar
You're just like the frog
I kept trapped in a jar
So this is the cliffhanger
Now the season's complete
We might get back together
On next year's sweeps
And all of the viewers
Are feeling shortchanged
By two more lovers
Indefinitely estranged

I had too much to think last night
I worked up the courage to fight
Now I'm the cheese that stands alone
You can call me provolone
I can't believe that I
Was so mean to you
I called you names
I was browbeating you

So this is the cliffhanger
Now the season's complete
We might get back together
On next year's sweeps
And all of the viewers
Are feeling shortchanged
By two more lovers
Indefinitely estranged
We were on the same plane
But in different classes
Flying to different ends
Of this planet's axis
We were two disc jockeys
On opposing stations
Now I have to play doctor
With a different patient

So this is the cliffhanger
Now the season's complete
We might get back together
On next year's sweeps
And all of the viewers
Are feeling shortchanged
By two more lovers
Indefinitely estranged
