Room #5 Cotton sheets soaking wet 2 am, we're not done yet We speak bodily We're shaking, we're flying, Next moment I realize you're crying And goddamn, goddamn It's not for me I know what's going on So I guess it's okay I know what's going on So it's fine that I stay Your bedroom is empty Light squares where the pictures used to be She took 'em for spite No novels, no TV she left you one Miles Davis CD So we play "All Blues" all night I know what's going on So I guess it's okay I know what's going on So it's fine that I stay For just a little bit of love and laughter But I get a little sick Of being the one who came right after bridge: Roll out of bed Get us a beer Honey your feet fall so hard Something you said That I didn't hear Doesn't matter you just need a bodyguard I know what's going on... Forget what I said Let's go back to bed It's what we do best She took all the rest |
