Outside the Woolpack Hotel Lyrics

Outside the Woolpack Hotel

Outside the Woolpack Hotel

I was thinking of you

Your body in the water

The lives we could have led

The things that I wanted to do

I speak a few words of Japanese

Not enough to follow you

But enough to make it clear

Enough to bring you near

And I love the taste of your breath

Warm and bourbon

I remind myself to breathe

And I love the way that you move

Closer to me, closer to me

You take a drag of your cigarette

As if it's not gonna kill ya

As if it's something you should do

As if it's the cigarette that would miss you

If you gave it up

If I could give you up

And I love the taste of your breath

Warm and bourbon

I remind myself to breathe

And I love the way that you move

Closer to me, closer to me

Down at the pool side I'm in the water

Looking over

Looking like your lover

Wanting it not to be over

I was making predictions

Guessing how it would all end

You were seen and content

I wondered what it meant

I wondered

I love the taste of your breath

Warm and bourbon

I remind myself to breathe

I love the way that you move

Closer to me, closer

I love the taste of your breath

Warm and bourbon

I remind myself to breathe

I love the way that you move

Closer to me, closer
