Description
This is a song about trying not to be cynical about love, making a conscious effort to hide, that cynicism, and perhaps losing it for a moment at the end.
Lyrics
I'm not quick to rest I've been knocked down and torn in three I've been second-guessed and I don't know what I believe But I saw you were smiling over your glass up at me and the night disappeared so quickly before we thought to sleep Baby call me crazy but I'm hoping for the best Don't look for the cue card This is not some kind of test So can I hold you now before you decide Time to leave and the night disappears Oh could you pretend you don't need sleep Every time you called it right You saw me in the light Oh no Every time you called it right I'm reaching out tonight Oh no And I saw you were smiling over your glass Up at me And I saw you again as quickly as I went back to sleep
