The season skulks around like a kicked dog
With leaves so slow to turn until the trees shook them off
I feel your fingers on my left lapel and I'm hopeful
But in the end none of this will mean anything
Rain slick you shiver coded messages
The concierge looks bored and then nervous
As he grabs our bags from outside in the cab does he wonder
If this is the company that misery keeps
As we watch over the skyline
The thousands of glittering headlights
Shuffling stars in the city streets
Just a moment while 'you and me' can still be described as 'we
Drunk lips loose enough to lose it all"A thousand lonely housewives can't all be wrong"
You're holding court, propping the hotel bar
Someone's laughing
Just outside your view, there is clarity
As we watch over the skyline
The thousands of glittering headlights
Shuffling stars in the city streets
Just a moment while 'you and me' can still be described as 'we
Now with our skin so paper thin
Now that the walls are closing in
This brittle love
For every crack a canyon
For every crack a canyon
As we watch over the skyline
The thousands of glittering headlights
Shuffling stars in the city streets
Just a moment while 'you and me' can still be described as 'we'
