Maritime Hours That You Keep
First the streetlight says you should eat something soon,
We always flood the hallways with our arbitrary news.
I know that you're defenseless, the phone just rings with bad news now and then.
Until the train leaves, the door is open against the fence.
It's a rainy night in Memphis, if you're safe you're fast asleep,
Those are the hours that you keep.
Hips together, we'll move our feet like don't care.
Paper blown together for a second, the length of lover affairs.
I know that we're defenseless, the phone just rings with bad news now and then.
Until the train leaves, the door is open. Were on the fence.
It's a rainy night in Memphis, if you're safe you're fast asleep,
Those are the hours that you keep. You keep on going home.
