And it starts…
\nSometime around midnight
\nOr at least that’s when
\nYou lose yourself
\nFor a minute or two<\/p>\n
As you stand…
\nUnder the barlights
\nAnd the band plays some song
\nAbout forgetting yourself for a while
\nAnd the piano’s this melancholy soundcheck
\nTo her smile
\nAnd that white dress she’s wearing
\nYou haven’t seen her
\nFor a while<\/p>\n
But you know…
\nThat she’s watching
\nShe’s laughing, she’s turning
\nShe’s holding her tonic like a cross
\nThe room suddenly spinning
\nShe walks up and asks how you are
\nSo you can smell her perfume
\nYou can see her lying naked in your arms<\/p>\n
And so there’s a change…
\nIn your emotions
\nAnd all of these memories come rushing
\nLike feral waves to your mind
\nOf the curl of your bodies
\nLike two perfect circles entwined
\nAnd you feel hopeless, and homeless
\nAnd lost in the haze
\nOf the wine<\/p>\n
And she leaves…
\nWith someone you don’t know
\nBut she makes sure you saw her
\nShe looks right at you and bolts
\nAs she walks out the door
\nYour blood boiling
\nYour stomach in ropes
\nAnd when your friends say what is it
\nYou look like you’ve seen a ghost<\/p>\n
And you walk…
\nUnder the streetlights
\nAnd you’re too drunk to notice
\nThat everyone is staring at you
\nAnd you so care what you look like
\nThe world is falling
\nAround you<\/p>\n
You just have to see her
\nYou just have to see her
\nYou just have to see her
\nYou just have to see her
\nYou just have to see her<\/p>\n
And you know that she’ll break you
\nIn two<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
