A Few Hours After This

The look before I go

Is the look for you

You only have to look and it will all come true

And we can fall outside

Into the fizzy night

Or pull me down in here

You know it's all the same

I only want to see if you are happy again

Or we can roll around

And find out upside down



A few hours after this and we're apart again

Like two white checks

Like opposite poles

In a secret game

(Like nothing like these I suppose... )

I really should have known by the cut of your smile

That the answer would be simple

It still took you a while to get it out of me

I thought you'd do it easily



Just put your hands around my heart

And squeeze me until I'm dry

I never thought you'd ever start to ever ask me why...



I never saw you again
