And I want to be kissed in the haze of this hotel room
F G Am

D9 E E7 Am
And the traffic it shakes as my travel shaver drones

And the maid she mistakes my 'come in' for a 'please leave me alone'

But I want to be held in the swell of her sweet perfume
F G Am
[Bridge]
Dm Dsus2 Am Em
Before the daylight dies and the dusty sky gets rusted up with tungsten

From the blue shade of the park, couples emerge

Dropping hands like they're still scared to get caught
