Galveston
Let's go to Galveston, baby
Hit up the ghost casinos, live in bright teal
You and me in our own movie
Hot and lovely
Blinking like these coastal lights and breathing like the tall grass
You have a good green heat
And I add the lime and the pastel sea blue
And I'm singing on the breeze, "You are mine, and I am yours"
I feel your chest move like these ocean waves
You know you want me, so come easy on over
Dipping me over backwards over the dining room table
Your lips to my neck
Your right hand to my right side
It's sweet with you and it's sweet all over
Going to the old theatre when no one's there
Sitting outside on our stair
Easy living and cool drinks
And always that flicker of multicolor
You hold me like you know me and I think you do
You're enamored with me, and I love it
Seeing you take all of me in, a sweep, besotted
Quick and flowing fast, light blue check
Buttoned-up and over and over and over and over
And if that's how I am perceived, then I'm blessed
To know how you give your touch and how you ask
For permission that's already given, innate
But that you still are respectful and immediate
We can live in Galveston; can't you see it?
Forgetting the time, and moving through it
There are too many mirrors in that house, but baby we can show it
Every room, make a move
So many things transcend age
This house can remain the same
And we can live on forever, more than the fences
Soft and steady like these lulling waves
And keep the windows open, 'cause I wanna hear them
And pull me in gently, and keep me warm with you
I don't even have to ask
I don't even have to ask
I don't even have to ask
I'm coming in, and I'm coming fast
And we keep walking way out into the water
Onto the water
Past the posts, understanding where we've been and how we've come
And it's better than ever, better than I could've even ever imagined
And I'm seeing it all come together
And you're right there with me
Hit up the ghost casinos, live in bright teal
You and me in our own movie
Hot and lovely
Blinking like these coastal lights and breathing like the tall grass
You have a good green heat
And I add the lime and the pastel sea blue
And I'm singing on the breeze, "You are mine, and I am yours"
I feel your chest move like these ocean waves
You know you want me, so come easy on over
Dipping me over backwards over the dining room table
Your lips to my neck
Your right hand to my right side
It's sweet with you and it's sweet all over
Going to the old theatre when no one's there
Sitting outside on our stair
Easy living and cool drinks
And always that flicker of multicolor
You hold me like you know me and I think you do
You're enamored with me, and I love it
Seeing you take all of me in, a sweep, besotted
Quick and flowing fast, light blue check
Buttoned-up and over and over and over and over
And if that's how I am perceived, then I'm blessed
To know how you give your touch and how you ask
For permission that's already given, innate
But that you still are respectful and immediate

And keep the windows open, 'cause I wanna hear them
And pull me in gently, and keep me warm with you
I don't even have to ask
I don't even have to ask
I don't even have to ask

And we keep walking way out into the water

Past the posts, understanding where we've been and how we've come
And it's better than ever, better than I could've even ever imagined
And I'm seeing it all come together
And you're right there with me
