We were laughing
When you crawled into the back of the van
And you sat next to me
We were listening
We were listening to that band
That I hadn’t heard of yet

And you took off your shoes
I was as nervous as I was confused
With nothing but the streetlights to help me prove
That this is so beautiful

And now your hands are running down my back
I’m ashamed to admit that we drink to forget
You smoke and I watch your breath
Going in and in and out and in again
Going in and in and out and in again

It was in a cheap motel
Where we solemnly swore
We would never let ourselves
Baptize our deepest fears
By destroying what is good
Before it could get here

And you took off your shoes
I was as nervous as I was confused
The light from the TV that we put on mute
Made everything feel new again

And now your hands are running down my back
I’m ashamed to admit that we drink to forget
You smoke and I watch your breath
Going in and in and out and in again
Going in and in and out and in again

And now your hands are running down my back
I’m ashamed to admit that we drink to forget
You smoke and I watch your breath
Going in and in and out and in again
Going in and in and out and in again

And if I’m lucky, you will let me in again
