You can't be in two places at once
Sure I can--with you, I'm here
But we're not there, neither confronts
My life spans--both there and near
.
You can't do both at the same time
Sure I can, I multitask
You can't be both common and sublime
'Tis my plan, if I'm wearing two masks
.
You can't save both people right now
I can, too, myself and my lover
But you can't rescue them somehow
Watch me do, myself and the other
.
You can't turn back a clock both ways
Exit and entrance, I walk the future and past
But it's only the present that round-the-clock stays
Watch us dance together, at last
