Just Friends

Impatiens the blue in your boutonnière

You stop the car for a smoke when we're almost there

But hey, hey, I ain't the kind to rush

'Cause we're just friends

Legs for days and a speakeasy grin

At the party lines of first-class broads waiting to pour gin

But hey, hey, I ain't the kind to crush

'Cause we're just friends

And in the darker hours when your room light's out

Am I fixture there in your mind?

Like you are in mine

Sometimes

It's a good thing it's dark when the sparklers go

'Cause the line of your lengthy shadow's a devil's breath too close

And I ain't the kind to blush

'Cause we're just friends

Yes, it's these darker hours when the moonlight's out

Making everything look all fit up for a king

Oh these late hours when it's just stars and troublemakers out

Friend, why are we staying in?
