lyrics

yes i have been drinking
as the night marched on
you reached out in conversation
like an upturned palm
in the dimmer-switch twilight
my hope is high-heeled
moving close to the unspoken
what your big talk conceals

and i keep my mind shut tight
wolves like you at the door
no unwanted incursions
no more questioning experts
but i will open up to you
it that's what's required
to close the inches between me
and my latest desire

and what you choose to spin out i might take to be true
but for this heavy thing i try to prove
one more equation never to be resolved
me plus you plus sweet alcohol

darkness shuffles in late
and you leave me thinking
you know time goes to my head
when i have been drinking
