If I May Lyrics

Dog's nails tap the kitchen floor
eddys of laughter swirl through the bar door
I'm writing in the dark and cannot see the letters (x2)

{CHORUS
If I may, then I might
If only you were here with me tonight, yeah yeah, yeah (x2)}

Outside is a garden of buildings
inside she stares at herself in a mirror
mesmerized by the light
blue green eyes she smokes and sings along with the radio

(Chorus) (x2)

Go alone, don't go alone, did you think you wouldn't belong?
Go alone, don't go alone, it's the same old song.

Dog's teeth click
headlights slide down down the walls
while sleep makes me a deal
I cannot refuse
I think of your absence
your sharp jaw
the way your collarbone surfaces
under your skin

(Chorus) (x2)
