Perth Girls Lyrics

Abbe May Perth Girls

Hot night under fluorescent light, there you go
Down on the tiles chequered black and white
My hands slip down as I navigate you
I knew I'd never stay on the edge of your city

I must tell you I want you

Hindsight's full might only tells me now
It's been unrequited since before you even came to my house
I walked around and around in little circles for you
Almost mammalian, more reptilian if I'm honest with you
I wait here in the southern hemisphere
For the summer to come and with no way to run from you

I must tell you I want you

Bright light hindsight only tells me how
You've been undecided since the morning you lay me out
We'd go to town, up and down these massive mountains for the views
Almost companions, more competing if I'm honest with you
I went from here to the northern hemisphere
Just to wade in the summer with no way to run from you

I must tell you I want you

Once more on the bathroom floor
To let you know I still think that you're beautiful
My hands are sticky now as I navigate you
I go from downtown to the heart of your city

I must tell you I want you
