Sugarcoat

(album: Staying At Tamara's - 2018)

Once upon a time in South Africa
I turned to you under the bleeding moon
The ships were sailing in beneath the table top
It was three o'clock, the night was still

Yeah, we stayed at Joanna's for a night or two
Though she never really saw us
We were too consumed
We never really even got to see the place
We were way too busy chasing number plates

I don't even wanna go out tonight
No, I've got you by my side
I don't even need to sugarcoat it, girl
No, I've got you by my side
By my side

I got to know you better on the trampoline
Although I am aware I won't know everything
And it's a big jump, big jump
Pull yourself together boy, you haven't got forever, boy
And if it feels like heaven, well

I don't even wanna go out tonight
No, I've got you by my side
I don't even need to sugarcoat it, girl
No, I've got you by my side
I don't even wanna go out tonight
No, I've got you by my side
I don't even need to sugarcoat it, girl
No, I've got you by my side

And it's a big jump, big jump
Pull yourself together, boy
Big jump, big jump
You haven't got forever, boy
Big jump, big jump
And if it feels like heaven, well
Now it feels like heaven and
When it feels like heaven, I

I don't even wanna go out tonight
No, I've got you by my side
I don't even need to sugarcoat it, girl
No, I've got you by my side
I don't even wanna go out tonight
No, I've got you by my side
I don't even need to sugarcoat it, girl
No, I've got you by my side
By my side
