Hands Down

Lyrics

Breathe in for luck, breathe in so deep
 This air is blessed, you share with me
 This night is wild, so calm and dull
 These hearts, they race, from self-control
 Your legs are smooth as they graze mine
 We're doing fine, we're doing nothing at all
 My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me
 So won't you kill me, so I die happy?
 My heart is yours to fill or burst to break or bury
 Or wear as jewelry, whichever you prefer
 The words are hushed, let's not get busted
 Just lay entwined here, undiscovered
 Safe in here from all the stupid questions
 "Hey, did you get some?" Man, that is so dumb
 Stay quiet, stay near, stay close, they can't hear
 So we can get some
 My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me
 So won't you kill me, so I die happy?
 My heart is yours to fill or burst, to break or bury
 Or wear as jewelry, whichever you prefer
 Hands down, this is the best day I can
 Ever remember, I'll always remember the sound
 Of the stereo, the dim of the soft lights
 The scent of your hair that you twirled in your fingers
 And the time on the clock when we realized it's so late
 And this walk that we shared together
 The streets were wet, and the gate was locked
 So I jumped it and I let you in
 And you stood at your door with your hands on my waist
 And you kissed me like you meant it
 And I knew that you meant it, that you meant it, that you meant it
 And I knew that you meant it, that you meant it
