lyrics

You got a roll of film, oh honey
I’ve got a night to kill
Let’s go out on this town and make a little trouble

I got a place in mind
Drink a big ol’ beer in a big ol’ stein
We can knock ‘em all back till we’re seeing double

Hmm
Hmm

I like making you laugh, oh honey
I like the small of your back
Run my fingers up and down while we’re lying in bed

Let’s go walk in the park
We can find a bit of grass till the sky gets dark
I’ll bring hummus and a blanket and a bottle of red

And the clouds are bold and bright
California fades away
And my heart is full and light
On this flight to JFK
If only just to see you for a day
Hmm

New York winter is cold, oh honey
I run hotter than most
Put your hand in my pocket if you need to get warm

Scrabble in the afternoon, cook dinner
Pasta with ricotta for two
Sit on the sofa by the fire while we weather the storm

And the clouds are bold and bright
California fades away
And my heart is full and light
On this flight to JFK
If only just to see you for a day
Hmm

Saturday, stumble through the Guggenheim
Talk in funny accents off and on
Either way, it’s nice to hold your hand in mine
It’s not a cliché if it’s in a song
You always find a way to sing along

You got a roll of film, oh honey
I’ve got a night to kill
Let’s go out on this town and make a little trouble

And the clouds are bold and bright
California fades away
And my heart is full and light
On this flight to JFK
If only just to see you for a day
Hmm
