"In the Zone" Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When the shadow of doubt has grown
And your heart has turned to stone
You're alone, trapped
In a cage of emotion
Why does it have to be like this
Why do we talk when we could kiss
My heart's an abyss
And I'm all out of lotion

[Refrain]
Why can't we be more than friends
Why can't you see

[Chorus]
That baby I'm in the zone
Like a king without a throne
I'd rather have you by my side
Than play the skin trombone
I thought that what we had was real
But I couldn't close the deal
I'm a piece of shit, cause baby
Baby, I'm in the Zone

[Verse 2]
Now every time I see your face
It puts me back right in that place
On my own, lost
In the arena of sorrows
You say you care then cut me loose
You know the truth there's no excuse
This is total abuse, and I just
Bought some lotion

[Refrain]
Why can't we be more than friends
Why can't you see

[Chorus]
That baby I'm in the zone
And the future's still unknown
I'm starting to think clearly now
That I've had some time alone
I thought that what we had was real
But I couldn't close the deal
I totally suck at this
Yeah baby, cause baby

[Bridge]
I'm in the zone

[Outro]
Cause baby
Baby, I'm in the Zone
