lyrics

The coast is clear...
And we didn't get near at all
Had a couple of beers
And then the fear kicked in you
Sat in stale heat
Both quite defeated I felt daft
With me jeans off sat
On the mattress where your tears subside

We cast our shadows across
The patio like pylons at sunset
Eyes red like scratched out words
Sat with Danielle on the front step
Fuck me, did you get off the floor fast
When he made his approach like you're best mates
Hand on the small of your back and all
You should keep kisses out of your templates

The snow don't stick
We danced in 5/6
Don't feel so sick
Now I'm stood up and zipped up
Stuck between the gears
The party's over, drinks are spilt
Went and got the quilt and we kissed
In the light of the blue dawn

We cast our shadows across
The patio like pylons at sunset
Eyes red like scratched out words
Sat with Danielle on the front step
Fuck me, did you get off the floor fast
When he made his approach like you're best mates
Hand on the small of your back and all
You should keep kisses out of your templates

I assumed you'd stay
Wrapped between my sheets
Not for love and kisses
For pleasure and for play
Pylons on the horizon
Wires collect the rain
Then you broke my heart in treble and gain
