But meanwhile downstairs, I'm setting up shop |
|
A little too proud to let the matter drop |
|
And I can hear you up there |
|
Isn't it romantic? |
|
You're huffing and puffing rearranging |
|
Deck chairs on the titanic |
|
And I reach for a glass of cool water drawn |
|
From the rivers of babylon |
|
And meanwhile outside, the stars have come out |
|
And the humid summer air pulls at the ring in my snout |
|
And you stand at your window looking down |
|
And I spread wide my arms |
|
Jump if you want to jump, jump if you want to |
|
The water's warm |
|
I know |
|
I know 'cause I've been swimming |
|
Blindly along through the rivers of babylon |
