lyrics

SHORTHAND

she says she don’t need no one to come to her rescue
and that’s good cause I ain’t got no oars
I’ve been adrift out in this desert float along until
I see her distant shores

maybe I’m the one needs rescuing tonight
maybe she’ll throw me a line
it’s funny how the more I feel the less I say
the more free my heart, the more my tongue gets tied
but I hope she knows that I’m thinking of her tonight

self-park garage, a friendly hug
she takes my hand – there goes the rug
an August romance underneath florescent lights
a nice wine buzz, a rooftop bar
from up here we can so so far
and I’ve become aware that my hand is on her thigh

maybe I’m the one …

a stolen glass, a nervous kiss
the things that make relationships
the tiny gestures that no one else would understand
you build a language all your own
hand signals, mirrors, inside jokes
and over time they become a kind of shorthand

maybe I’m the one … yeah I hope you know that I’m thinking of you tonight
