Lyrics
They met each other at a party
she wore expectation like a shawl
sifting among the cluttered conversation
that didn't say anything at all
she said
I'm not expecting anything
he said
well, that leaves room for me
she said
I like the way you smile
and he flickered like a movie
he took her to his buildings,
climbing up into the sky
where the city lay there at their feet
lapping like waves against the traffic lights
when love came in a rush
she felt herself
begin to go
a good head on your shoulders
won't save you from the undertow
