You were right outside Cigarette alight When the party slowed Kerosene arrows Would it feel the same? Your mouth around my name When I caught your eye It just felt like all that wasted time We were talking 'bout it, honey Now New York City's never sunny I saw you standing in the hallway Oh love, you just keep twisting the knife So we play it cool Lovers' interlude Watch you roll the dice Said that lightening wouldn't strike us twice It hits me and I'm in the deep end Now all of my defenses weaken You whisper something softly to me "Oh love, you just keep twisting the knife"
