Works Every Time

(album: Guy Walks Into A Bar… - 2019)

The sky is flashing like a zoetrope
As the stars fall apart on the floor
Gotta calibrate a telescope
But I don't even know what I'm looking for
Just a day in your life
And I would die happily evermore
But if you're spending the night
Then what the hell is heaven even for?

I need to know how you show me
(Something that I've never seen before)
I need to know how you take me
(Somewhere that I've never been before)
I need to know how you love
(Someone that I've never loved before)
I need to know how you take it away
(With a blink of an eye)
Show me your trick
It works every time

Skyscrapers on a sea of black
Passing by as I fly to the sun
Always said I better watch my back
Then again that depends where you're coming from
I let you into my world
And now I'm staring down the Golden Gate
'Cause if you won't be my girl
Then what's the point of living anyway?

I need to know how you show me
(Something that I've never seen before)
I need to know how you take me
(Somewhere that I've never been before)
I need to know how you love
(Someone that I've never loved before)
I need to know how you take it away
(With a blink of an eye)
Show me your trick
It works every time

Works every time
