Underneath the universe on her inner thigh, just underneath her skirt.
Underneath the waves, something I’ve said before.
Underneath the street light hum that brings me home to the back door.
(Bridge)
B Em C C D
There’s a place that we embrace. And it’s calling us…
(Chorus)
And we’re dancing like this, we dance when we kiss.
We’re dancing when we make love underneath the street light hum.
And we’re dancing like this, we dance when we kiss.
We’re dancing when we make love underneath the street light hum.

(Verse 2)
Just above the tallest trees.
Just above her treehouse and the place where she kissed me.
Just across the sky something I’ve said before.
In between the space you look inside to see that you are beautiful.

(Bridge)
B Em C C D
There’s a place that we embrace. And it’s calling us…

(Chorus)
And we’re dancing like this, we dance when we kiss.
We’re dancing when we make love underneath the street light hum.
And we’re dancing like this, we dance when we kiss.
We’re dancing when we make love underneath the street light hum.

(break)
And it’s calling us, and it’s calling us.
And it’s calling us, and it’s calling us.
And it’s calling us, and it’s calling us.
C D
And it’s calling us

(Chorus)
And we’re dancing like this, we dance when we kiss.
We’re dancing when we make love underneath the street light hum.
And we’re dancing like this, we dance when we kiss.
We’re dancing when we make love underneath the street light hum.

your father killed himself

Dear Claudia,
you leave pieces of you in each bed you lay in

A victim of apathy
but you don’t care what people say about you

I will let you in before you break yourself

It’s true that you like to sleep around
enjoy it with your backside on the ground
but you should know that it’s not your fault
your father killed himself

I will let you in before you break yourself
