Translation
Bilingual
I saw your face
Through a cloud of smoke at the back of the bar
Beneath a fat, silver spiderweb
Glinting in the light of a passing car
I had an old joke
A very old joke on my lips
Peach skin and poppies
Painted on my wrist
And the city had never looked better than it looked in the rain
In the darkness at noon
You could never come to me too soon
You could never come to me too soon
ย
Vodka and OJ
Peanuts and cigarettes
I saw you, Carly
And I lost my breath
Chips of ice
Crunching in my teeth
The time would come, I knew it then
When I would cling to you like a leech
And the city had never looked better than it looked in the rain
In the darkness at noon
You could never come to me too soon
You could never come to me too soon
In airports, in hotels, on beaches
In bedrooms, in heated outdoor pools
In churches, in cafรฉs, in forests
In mirrors, in Humphrey Perkins High School
In car parks, on rooftops
Up in the branches of the mighty oak tree
Listen to me call you, Carly
Listen to me
You could never come to me too soon
You could never come to me too soon
You could never come to me too soon
You could never come to me too soon
