Light Breathing (Me and Martha Plimpton in a Fancy Elevator)

歌詞

Me and Martha Plimpton in an elevator Her golden labrador kissed my index finger Two in the morning, summer saturated I'd been drinking and it'd be raining And it felt so strange, 'cause I didn't know what to say And when she smiled, I turned away But that's so like me, timid, self conscious, crippling She seemed so friendly and I must have seemed uninteresting Soaked from walking and smelled like booze and cigarettes I stood there listening to her light breathing And I wanted to say that I really loved her films I wanted to make her laugh and smile but I stood still I managed to mutter hello Her eyes shining in the fancy elevator lights I stood awkwardly, hands fluttering The doors parted and she said goodnight to me And her voice was like a song that wouldn't leave my head And I thought, Martha I'm running on empty Well, I couldn't help but think I missed another chance to live But isn't that the way it always ends? The way it always ends
