Tanqueray

She mainly had eyes for the summer
 Though native to cold mountain air
 She was a midnight runner
 Never belonged anywhere
 A war going on in a seashell
 Searching for a place to belong
 Living out her last days in a basement apartment
 With the curtains drawn
 And I said, "It'd be a shame if we
 Didn't take some time to see"
 Tanqueray on your lips then mine
 Tattoo of cheap red wine tracing the smile on your face

 Can I meet you one town over so my ex-husband doesn't see?
 That'd be just the thing to get him riled up going round
 Makin' all sorts of new trouble for me
 And I just, I just couldn't leave you alone there
 Lost in some little town
 So I said, "Give your heart a shake and
 Come with me now"
 Tanqueray on your lips then mine
 Tattoo of cheap red wine tracing the smile on your face
 Tanqueray
 Oh tanqueray
 Tanqueray
 There in the blur of a brand new love
 Stood all that we were, still holdin' on
 To what we deserved and what we believed all along
 I said, "t'd be a shame if we
 Didn't find some way to be"
 Tanqueray on your lips then mine
 Tattoo of cheap red wine tracing the smile on your face
 Tanqueray heaven high in the pine
 Take a photo for another time
 Should we forget how we feel?
