As I looked out mid flight
Down at the Chinese night
Looked like inverted
Spiderwebs of traffic light
Go back two hours before
Skyscrapers watched in awe
We took a cab in vain
And in the haze we saw
The words were cutting
Deeper than before
When you claw
You're heading down
A darker corridor
Then you went verbal on me
Then I went down on you
You didn't know what to do
Cause I do so well
You dropped me into your bath
I almost drowned in your bed
And then the skyline sang
A sounding Shanghai roar
The city didn't sound like this before
Shanghai roar
It never knew how good it was at all
As I got out in the street
Out in the Asian heat
A walk of shame at dawn
Your hotel called to me:
Hey I'll be here in the night,
Ready to set things right
You know how stuff goes down
When I let skin be torn
You never knew how good
That was before
Shanghai roar
I never wanna leave
Here anymore
But then you had to go
I never wanna feel
This anymore
Shanghai no!
I still recall the texture
Of your bathroom floor
They always have to go
I never wanna feel
This anymore
Shanghai no!
Another evening
Staring at a hotel door
Yeah, you're smiling now aren't you?
Cause you can remember as well.
You know exactly what I mean. It's ehm.
It's a longing that's like
Yeah. deeply grounded within our soul,
You know? And ehm
You look up to the sky and what not
And you think hm. Maybe. Maybe.
Just maybe
That person is thinking about you too?
I hope that's an adequate
Interpretation of my feeling
