Adult Diversion

How do I get close to you
Even if you don't notice
As I admire you on the subway?
When it's dark outside your house
You won't let anybody out
And keep a padlock on the doorway

One more cocktail
And I'm on your trail
If I should fall
Act as though it never happened
I will retreat
And sit inside so very quietly

How do I grow old with you
Even if you don't notice
As I pass by you on the sidewalk?
When it's dark outside your house
You won't let anybody out
You're keeping a dead girl
In the closet

One more cocktail
Is it a good time
Or is it highly inappropriate?
If I should fall
Act as though it never happened
I will retreat
And then go back to university

If I should fall
Act as though it never happened
I will retreat
And sit inside so very quietly

I won't waste a moment
I won't waste a...

If I should fall
Act as though it never happened
I will retreat
And sit inside so very quietly
If I should fall
Act as though it never happened
I will retreat
And then go back to university
