Mercury

歌詞

The air is so cold tonight Here, let me put my arm around you I've never seen you looking quite So winsome It feels like I'm sixteen again Secret touches when no-body sees And I don't even like champagne But I'll drink some Your skin is so cold to touch Well, you know, you'd be a whole lot warmer in my bed Oh, have I just said too much? Well, don't listen! Explanations are not required Just two bottles of St. Emilion And your eyes do look very tired But they still glisten You're laughing at things I say Then, suddenly, you're staring into space I'd really like you to stay Now I'm feeling bolder But you're telling me little tales And I think there are lots of things that I should know Just keep running your fingernails Across my shoulder The phone's ringing at 3 a.m. Well, if you know who it is, why don't you go? It's because you don't want to speak to them While I am near you And I know where you want to be You're in my hands but I just bet you'll slip away You'll trickle like mercury And I won't hear you Tonight I'll do just what you say Tomorrow is another day You don't have to tell me anything I won't make you tell me anything
