When the Clocks Run Late

เนื้อเพลง

[Verse 1] I live in the fire where the red cups spin You came through laughing with the night on your skin The room leaned sideways when you said my name I lost my place, then I lost my game [Pre-Chorus] You said, “Come on, don’t let the good part go” I tried to answer, but I moved too slow [Chorus] Baby, hotline, call me when the room turns blue I’m still by the doorway, looking out for you Bo-bo boy, say it soft, let the whole world wait We can leave this party when the clocks run late [Verse 2] Your jacket on the chair, one sleeve on the floor Someone’s asking if we’ve seen you before I’ve got a little spark and a paper-thin plan You took my hand like you already understand [Pre-Chorus] You said, “Come on, don’t let the good part go” I tried to answer, but I moved too slow [Chorus] Baby, hotline, call me when the room turns blue I’m still by the doorway, looking out for you Bo-bo boy, say it soft, let the whole world wait We can leave this party when the clocks run late [Bridge] If the morning finds us on the front step With your silver rings and my shirt half-wet I’ll remember how you laughed at the flame Like it couldn’t touch us, like it knew your name [Final Chorus] Baby, hotline, call me when the room turns blue I’m still by the doorway, looking out for you Bo-bo boy, say it soft, let the whole world wait We can leave this party when the clocks run late [Outro] When the clocks run late When the clocks run late Baby, hotline
