Right now, I could lay you out and kiss you
Under the coloured lights
With the stink of port on your breath
And the cigarette holes in your shirt
I reach out & connect the lines
Here, in the cold, I feel hungry & old
I need something real, something so, so precious
And I think that you got it, locked in your pocket
You just don't wanna show it
For fear that I'll break it
Trust me, I'm not the kind to be careless
I'm not the careless kind
I have not come to set fire to the palace
Just to say that I've seen it
Once in my life
