Montecito

We take the old road Down to Montecito And it's so cold We let no air between us I pray no one has seen us My alibi is paper thin And if they dig There's something in the air We're arsonists who love our work Who should have known those embers would flare But if we burn the world down you won't care Now I'm on my own road Too far to visit you in Montecito You can't keep calling me I fall in love with every ring I should never have let you get this close It was a million years ago And I can't fix the man I was, but I had to let you know That you were everything I need But I was just too blind to see And you just too smart to speak Smash cut to Chicago Tender Zephyr blowing on the down-low Moselle and North Ionia I know your mother warned you Don't want to be complicit but you missed it Early morning flight Tender Zephyr kept me up all night Her perfume on her skin I swear I'll never bathe again It was a million years ago And I can't fix the man I was, but I had to let you know That you were everything I need But I was just too blind to see And you just too smart to speak Summer shorter by the day We felt so free in Newport Back Bay But the birds belt out alarms We gotta talk about self-harm But you laugh and take my arm
