Under the Roof

Two drips of wine
You bat your eyes at mine
Still smitten from the wink I caught you peeking back in line
Two stolen times
Your fingertips sit tight
Tap at the table, tip a rhythm better than your heart could mime

Some kind of silly little secret we made
Left alone to our own devices
Couldn't try to make a bigger mistake
When we've waited all night to fight this

You wait up under the roof and
You wait up to tie up the loose end
In my head, I'm surprised
We turn red, it's alive
You wait up under the roof and
You wait up to tie up the loose end
In my head, I'm surprised
We turn red, it's alive

Could we remember what we said is wrong
Could we forget, or let it pass, or carry on
Cause all the warning signs arise, and blink out on the road
Devising ways to keep in line, or let it take control

Some kind of silly little secret we made
Left alone to our own devices
Couldn't try to make a bigger mistake
When we've waited all night to try this

You wait up under the roof and
You wait up to tie up the loose end
In my head, I'm surprised
We turn red, it's alive
You wait up under the roof and
You wait up to tie up the loose end
In my head, I'm surprised
We turn red, it's alive

You wait up under the roof and
You wait up to tie up the loose end
In my head, I'm surprised
We turn red, it's alive
You wait up under the roof and
You wait up to tie up the loose end
In my head, I'm surprised
We turn red, it's alive
