Grab the matchbox, light a cigarette
Try to rearrange the alphabet
U and I will B OK, you'll C
Trust me, sweet P
Why are we so desperate to be seen?
If only
We stayed at that old hotel on Main Street
On the roadside, just up past the creek
You washed away your makeup and you crawled under the sheets
How do you remain
A mystery to me?
You hear the water and you pull me by the hand
You look down and laugh and say, "You hate the sand"
I made a promise that I'd try to meet you
Closer to the center of what we both want for both of us
It's so obvious
We stayed at that old hotel on Main Street
On the roadside, just up past the creek
You washed away your makeup and you crawled under the sheets
How do you remain
A mystery to me?
I could try to run
But there's nowhere I'd rather be
You're the only one
You're standing here next to me
We stayed at that old hotel on Main Street
On the roadside, just up past the creek
You washed away your makeup and you crawled under the sheets
How do you remain
