Glistener

I went without a fuss in the dead of night
In the back of your sedan like a little child
You drove me all the way to the county line
Said "don't be a stranger, goodbye"
(I wonder) What took you so long to see
I don't believe, I don't believe a word that you say
It's better off this way

Cause I don't know the pleasure without the pain
Your body glistening off the window pane
Your voice inside my ear whispering my name
I'm here to stay
Honey I'll never let you go just stay a while
Your fingers through my hair go a thousand miles
I don't mean to stare I just know that this is it for a while

For a long day I was by myself
Your headlights turn to teeth in the devil's mouth
Oh I could spend eternity gazing out
Look for myself on the horizon
I wonder what took you so long to see
I'm incomplete, I'm not a real fucking adult yet
I'm trying though

Cause I don't know the pleasure without the pain
Your body glistening off the window pane
Your voice inside my ear whispering my name
I'm here to stay
Honey I'll never let you go just stay a while
Your fingers through my hair go a thousand miles
I don't mean to stare I just know that this is it for a while
