Personal Cathedrals

(album: A Touch Of The Beat Gets You Up On Your Feet Gets You Out And Then Into The Sun - 2021)

Bleeding sunset on a desert view
A sea of cocktails but every drink is empty
Cold shoulders and bad perfume (Ooh, ooh)
Ring the bell, it's a cattle call
You self-park too?
How did we end up on the edge of the infinity pool
I won't jump in without you

Let's leave this party right now
We never liked these people
Cowboys and hopeless crowns
Spinning us all around
Looking us up and down

They treat these lonely dance floors
Like personal cathedrals
Even diamonds here don't shine
Spinning us all around
Looking us up and down

I'm at my end here but I'm hanging on (Ooh, ooh)
All I can do is nod my head or play dead
Who's the fool celebrating who, could this be any less cool
You laugh and say I love you

Let's leave this party right now
We never liked these people
Cowboys and hopeless crowns
Spinning us all around
Looking us up and down

They treat these lonely dance floors
Like personal cathedrals
Even diamonds here don't shine
Spinning us all around
Looking us up and down

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

We should've left by now
It's clear we don't know how
We don't know how

Let's leave this party right now
We never liked these people
Cowboys and hopeless crowns
Spinning us all around
Looking us up and down

They treat these lonely dance floors
Like personal cathedrals
Even diamonds here don't shine
Spinning us all around
Looking us up and down
