|
The air is so cold tonight |
|
Here, let me put my arm around you |
|
I've never seen you looking quite |
|
So winsome |
|
It feels like I'm sixteen again |
|
Secret touches when no-body sees |
|
And I don't even like champagne |
|
But I'll drink some |
|
Your skin is so cold to touch |
|
Well, you know, you'd be a whole lot warmer in my bed |
|
Oh, have I just said too much? |
|
Well, don't listen! |
|
Explanations are not required |
|
Just two bottles of St. Emilion |
|
And your eyes do look very tired |
|
But they still glisten |
|
You're laughing at things I say |
|
Then, suddenly, you're staring into space |
|
I'd really like you to stay |
|
Now I'm feeling bolder |
|
But you're telling me little tales |
|
And I think there are lots of things that I should know |
|
Just keep running your fingernails |
|
Across my shoulder |
|
The phone's ringing at 3 a.m. |
|
Well, if you know who it is, why don't you go? |
|
It's because you don't want to speak to them |
|
While I am near you |
|
And I know where you want to be |
|
You're in my hands but I just bet you'll slip away |
|
You'll trickle like mercury |
|
And I won't hear you |
|
Tonight I'll do just what you say |
|
Tomorrow is another day |
|
You don't have to tell me anything |
|
I won't make you tell me anything |
