Dinner for Two

歌詞

By the time the guests arrive Oh, already it was dark outside Table's set with china dishes We're welcomed in with tiny kisses What's her name? I don't remember Isn't that the famous author? Harry's gonna get some appetizers Now he's keeping out of range of small arms fire Vera has a phone she says is workin' Now she's crawling on the floor across the kitchen Something I should tell you But we are never alone Tanks outside the bedroom window We'll be okay with the curtain closed The guests are fine behind the sofa It's much too late they should not go home Something I should tell you But we are never alone Up by dawn, already morning I ask myself what is goin' on Some tender words and sidelong glances Are you okay? Have you lived here long? Underneath the stairway Somebody's changing her clothes Sweatpants and a t-shirt Silk dresses cover the floor Sit down by my side Take my overcoat When will we get out? Maybe a week or so Some of us losing it Some of us breaking down Some of us stick it out Used to it now Something I should tell you, But we are never alone There's something I should tell you, But I've been waiting so long When it's over with, Going our separate ways How about you and me Dinner for two
