Sidewalk steam kisses ankles Neon hums our names You twirl a pink straw I laugh, lose my aim You say keep it tender I nod, stoke the flame Coat sleeves hide the tremble Keys rain soft and slow You lean like a secret I lean, let it show stay so close say it slow Paper crown tilts sideways Cherry gloss on glass Boot prints write our story The crosswalk ticks us on You say truth runs messy—lipstick on the rim I smile, let that last Snare snaps, nerves settle Heart lands two and four Your name rings like cymbal I ache, want one more stay this close say it soft You blot off the gloss; I clear a fogged pane— wrong hand, right hand, ours. stay so close say it slow — city snow hushes the snare
Lyrics
Sidewalk steam kisses ankles Neon hums our names You twirl a pink straw I laugh, lose my aim You say keep it tender I nod, stoke the flame Coat sleeves hide the tremble Keys rain soft and slow You lean like a secret I lean, let it show stay so close say it slow Paper crown tilts sideways Cherry gloss on glass Boot prints write our story Time chooses to pass You say truth gets messy I smile, let that last Snare snaps, nerves settle Heart lands two and four Your name rings like cymbal I ache, want one more stay so close say it slow No mask tonight Choose wrong or right stay so close say it slow stay so close say it slow
