I  know they say it's over, we  can't go on like this
The  moonlight makes us ardent and  the sun returns our sense
But  we ain't much for orders,  we can't go on like this
But  we can live forever with  secrets on our lips
We  work in secret under cover of darkness
Hands  steadied by the weight of our lie
Broke  branches, codes and chalk markings
I'll  leave a trail only you can find
All  the alleys in Manhattan are gone kid
They  sold the shadows when the rent got high
So  we sneak into the Central Park and
Work  in secret for the rest of the night
We  work in secret for the rest of the night
We  work in secret for the rest of the night
We  work in secret for the rest of the night
And  keep it all a lie
I  know they say it's over, we can't go on like this
The  moonlight makes us ardent and the sun returns our sense
But  we ain't much for orders, we can't go on like this
But  we can live forever with secrets on our lips
We  found a crawl space behind the vending machines
Pressed  each other against each other until we fell asleep
Woken  shirtless arm in arm by a cleaning lady's screams
Her  bottom lip was swollen from being pressed between my teeth
I  could have stayed there for weeks hands in her hair
Hands  creeping innocent under the waist of my jeans
Fingertips  tracing the shape of our lips
We  spoke in breaths and that's it
It's  not a bad life to live making out all day
Living  off the food and drinks inside the vending machines
The  sun's wide awake she rode off on her bike alone
I  never saw here again, we never speak
The  night before I met the girl I swore would change my life
Move  across the country try to break a wild horse to a wife
But  that heartbreak was years away, right?
And  this girl was right here with locks to pick and trees to climb
I  remember you well at the Thunderbird motel
We  were talking just so strange and so sweet?
Two  bits will buy you ten on the vibrating bed
I  kissed your skin behind the vending machine
If  you ask me right now why I never did tell
Anyone  about our evening with me
I  don't know, hell
Some  secrets are just things that you keep
I  know they say it's over, we  can't go on like this
The  moonlight makes us ardent and  the sun returns our sense
But  we ain't much for orders,  we can't go on like this
But  we can live forever with  secrets on our lips
With  secrets on our lips
With  secrets on our lips
With  secrets on our lips
With  secrets on our lips
