Wound Up

zebra-skin fabric flows smooth down the curve of your back

we bump into a tourist waving an American flag

they come and go

they come and go

there's a blue sky turning pink it's quickly fading to black



whatever...



let's go to the beach tonight with a bottle of wine

baby it's a lot harder to stay in...

when you're wound up so, so tight



an old man offers up a joke for my pocket change

behind the girl on roller-blades two cars nearly collide

they come and go

they come and go

may all black cats and alley rats never cross your lucky path.



never...



let's go to the beach tonight with a bottle of wine

baby it's a lot harder to stay in...

when you're wound up so, so tight



I'm glad you're here with me

(cold feet in the conversation)

here's to you and here's to me...

here's to you and here's to me...

here's to you and here's to me...



let's go to the beach tonight with a bottle of wine

baby it's a lot harder to stay in...



let's go to the beach tonight with a bottle of wine

baby it's a lot harder to stay in...

when you're wound up so, so tight

when you're wound up so, so...

when you're wound up so, so tight
