We could be so happy if you'd only open up.

We were two high schoolers making out in the park. We were looking out for no one but the two of us. There were alarms ringing all around us but we didn't care.
And it grew dark.
(And now, it's Spring again.)

We don't need to run away just to find a sacred place. We just need to draw the shades; let the sun travel to some other neighbor's backyard window. We could go undercover like some old folks who don't care to know and do away with the smoke screens and dollar signs.
Off the record to hit the mark
To see the ending
Where to start, now
To hold it down
To see the sun come up
To paint the town
Just to get through

People do. People don't. People won't, but I will ask you to please stand still. What's your name and your number? Write it down on this page. I'll fold it up and keep it close. You might get bored over the Summer in the heat; trading sweat for shade and soggy napkins,
lemonade and other things fit for two like me and you. You and me, we could be...

Why are you surprised? This room is just what you wanted it to be. Count your losses, boy. Please believe that you are not so replaceable. When will this place get to know your turtlenecking tendencies and royal underscoring?
Here's a pillow for your neck.
Don't be a sour face in a magazine. Don't forget to write home. Get what you came to get. Anything else, you can share with your neighbors.
Don't pull the plug if you need a reading light. Give a little nod when you're finished, and when you're finished sweep your new "purple" carpet.

The password is: What.

Put your best face forward. Give it your best shot.

Something on the way made you stay/made you wait for it. And what for? What for? Get to the bottom of this...
Something on the way made you wait/made you play for keeps. Get to the bottom, now...
