Woolpack Hotel

Outside the Woolpack Hotel
I was thinking of you
Your body in the water
The lives we could have led
The things that I wanted to do

I speak a few words of Japanese
Not enough to follow you
But enough to make it clear
Enough to bring you near

And I love the taste of your breath
Warm and bourbon
I remind myself to breathe
And I love the way that you move

Closer to me, closer to me

You take a drag of your cigarette
As if it’s not gonna kill ya
As if it’s something you should do
As if it’s the cigarette that would miss you
If you gave it up
If I could give you up

And I love the taste of your breath
Warm and bourbon
I remind myself to breathe
And I love the way that you move

Closer to me, closer to me

Down at the pool side I’m in the water
Looking over
Looking like your lover
Wanting it not to be over

I was making predictions
Guessing how it would all end
You were seen and content
I wondered what it meant
I wondered

I love the taste of your breath
Warm and bourbon
I remind myself to breathe
I love the way that you move

Closer to me, closer

I love the taste of your breath
Warm and bourbon
I remind myself to breathe
I love the way that you move
Closer to me, closer
