Seven Walls

(album: Matador - 2015)

Let's climb up the seven walls
Share a stolen thought
In a parking lot

A few hours until the light
We trace out the stars
'Cause the night is ours

But the falling rain
Couldn't stop the fire that burns for you
I still have your note, marked with kohl
The numbers barely readable

So let's walk down to Jericho
Share a little smoke
And watch the paper burn

In the water lay sister moon
And then a kiss in the dark
'Cause the night is ours

But the falling rain
Couldn't stop the fire that burns for you
But the empty streets will fill with light
So don't step on the cracks
'Cause I love you tonight

So let's climb up the seven walls
Share a stolen thought
'Cause the night is ours

So don't step on the cracks
'Cause I love you tonight

Don't step on the cracks
'Cause I want you tonight
