Lyrics

[Verse 1] Washed out apartment Stripped to the floorboards Flag on the chair like she's conquered the world My bed stands taller than the one in her bedroom We'll have none of that, we'll just lay on the floor It's harder in theory, it's easy in person We'll sort the logistics There's room for the two of us in her narrow hallway We dance in the corner It's foreign to me, but she's heard it before [Chorus] Ooh, when you'rе looking for diamonds Who knows what you'll find? I'll remember your facе, I'll lose track of the time Ooh, when you're searching for something And it hits you blind You ask to hang up your coat, can I stay awhile? Ooh, I like when I stay, holding her in the dark Ooh, I'm missing her face, fall asleep to the sound of cars passing by She's moving through bright, clear skies on a flight to California When there's plenty of gold in NY [Verse 2] I'll hold you so close, I'll put creases in your clothes Wake up at 8:45 Drag your suitcase out the door I knew you left in the morning But now I'm Christopher Walken down these streets you call home Can I call you on the phone? 'Cause it gets dark in New York I know it's the same on the West Coast I'm holding it in, she's formed the toughest of skin [Chorus] Ooh, when you're hoping for nothing That's when something comes Who knows what this turns into But knowing everything's no fun Ooh, when you're searching for something And it hits you blind You ask to hang up your coat, can I stay awhile? Ooh, I like when I stay, holding her in the dark Ooh, I'm missing her face, fall asleep to the sound of cars passing by She's moving through bright, clear skies on a flight to California When there's plenty of gold in NY
