Two Hours Here

Can't leave a dish in the kitchen sink
 Can't forget which was the turned-on light
 Can't leave a reason for folks to think
 Something went on here that wasn't right
 Couch or the bed what do you prefer?
 Just don't forget where the pillows were
 Two lonely people get lonelier
 This does not
 Satisfy
 Why should innocent mice have to die?
 Just to buy us what?
 Two hours here
 And three hours there
 That hardly amounts to a love affair
 One anxious embrace
 Then one cigarette
 Go home and behave like we never met!
 Then I feel worse
 Desparate and small
 How is this better than nothing at all
 Stealing two hours here
 And three hours there
 It's not fair
 This is Frances' home
 Wherever we're together we are home
 Try with me
 I see a house where we'll fall asleep
 I see a clear it's not far away
 Clothes on the floor in a great big heap
 Window shades open all night and day
 Won't have to chase after missing socks
 Able to breed cause the front door locks
 Nobody phones us and no one knocks
 No more clocks
 No alarms
 Missing breakfast to lie in your arms
 Time goes by wasting
 Two hours here
 And three hours there
 For suddenly hours are ours to spare
 Kissing outdoors finally free
 While neighbors will see us and leave us be
 House by the sea
 That would be proof
 Ours to wander from basement to roof
 Squandring two hours here
 And three hours there
 Folding a bedspread or moving a chair
 Climbing the stairs to the
 Bedroom we share
 We'll be opening windows and letting in air!
 Wasting two hours here
 Wasting three hours there!
 And that's fair
 More than fair
 Yes that's fair
