A phased golden light, rained down from the streetlight It fell across your shoulder, paused just above your collar Like it had something to show me As if I wasn't already noticing Your eyes a shade of wonder Like if thunder had a color It could have been harmless Wanting to see If I could get a little closer And walk away breathing It might have been cheating Or exactly is the lie Too early to admit it I wanted you for mine I kissed Maria in the alley You laughed and spilled your whiskey There's some I can't remember A talented bartender Way out in the cheap seat The stars stare unblinking The ones that know anything It could have been harmless Wanting to see If I could get a little closer And walk away breathing It might have been cheating Or exactly is the lie Too early to admit it I wanted you for mine There was a sword in my drink Everything's a sign That you wanted to be And you wanted to be It could have been harmless Wanting to see If I could get a little closer And walk away breathing It might have been cheating Or exactly is the lie Too early to admit it I wanted you for mine It could have been harmless It could have been harmless
