Grab the matchbox, light a cigarette

Try to rearrange the alphabet

U and I will B OK, you'll C

Trust me, sweet P

Why are we so desperate to be seen?

If only

We stayed at that old hotel on Main Street

On the roadside, just up past the creek

You washed away your makeup and you crawled under the sheets

How do you remain

A mystery to me?

You hear the water and you pull me by the hand

You look down and laugh and say, "You hate the sand"

I made a promise that I'd try to meet you

Closer to the center of what we both want for both of us

It's so obvious

Wе stayed at that old hotel on Main Street

On the roadsidе, just up past the creek

You washed away your makeup and you crawled under the sheets

How do you remain

A mystery to me?

I could try to run

But there's nowhere I'd rather be

You're the only one

You're standing here next to me

We stayed at that old hotel on Main Street

On the roadside, just up past the creek

You washed away your makeup and you crawled under the sheets

How do you remain
