A NIGHT WITH YOU

​

Sitting in the corner in the back left booth

Shaken on the rocks like something with vermouth

You take another photo for the hundredth time

Accompanying message and it's up online

Semolina ballerina undertones

Has your heart been taken or is it on loan

'Cause my imagination sees it so hard to find

​

So treat tomorrow as distant

We could leave in an instant

And I'd have your thirst for danger at the wheel

And I don't care where it takes me

Even if it forsakes me

Throw it at me now

​

Yeah I don't care where I go to just so long as I go there with you

Let broken songs that lie unheard

Be sung by tequila mockingbirds

​

Enigmatic cinematic masterpiece

My foolishness before is now an ironed crease

A night with you will surely come to tell you that

But to win your heart's to pull the rabbit out the hat

The small hours are approaching and the days in sight

But I know you subscribe to the eternal night

And all your inclinations see us out here till light

​

So treat tomorrow as distant

We could leave in an instant

And I'd have your thirst for danger at the wheel

And I don't care where it takes me

Even if it forsakes me

Throw it at me now

​

Yeah I don't care where I go to just so long as I go there with you

Let broken songs that lie unheard

Be sung by tequila mockingbirds

I don't ever want to be the left-hand man

Just another chapter in a masterplan

Tell me if you think it's too much of a stretch

Like a stone rose you want to be adored

Give me just a minute and I'll strike that chord

But tell me if you think it's too much of a stretch

​

For you there's a fool

For you there's a fool

So babe you better be cruel

For you there's a fool

For you there's a fool

So babe you better be cruel

 

Yeah I don't care where I go to just so long as I go there with you

Let broken songs that lie unheard

Be sung by tequila mockingbirds

​

Yeah I don't care where I go to

Just so long

Just so long as I go there with you

​

I don't ever want to be the left-hand man

Just another chapter in a masterplan

Tell me if you think it's too much of a stretch

Like a stone rose you want to be adored

Give me just a minute and I'll strike that chord

But tell me if you think it's too much of a stretch
