Touch And Go

 

I carried you through the town

You carried my bottle of wine

We walked through the night

Achieved the morning light

 

Let it be good, let it be all right

Everything we see is made for lovers

Let it be good, let it be all right

Everything we see is made for lovers now

 

We didn't speak with a mouth

All the words we knew were used

We didn't meet anyone

Our lights weren't on

 

I heard a whispering sound

We had been going too long

Had only one block to go

and it was the last walk

 

Let it be good, let it be all right

Everything we see is made for lovers

Let it be good, let it be all right

Everything we see is made for lovers now

 

One more word - touch

One more coin - luxury

One more time - impossibility

 

I pay rent for the time

that you are spending with me

I'd rather see you, girl, alone

And not too long - and not too much clothes on

 

Love's not free in this town

But it's good and I'm willing to pay

Your love is not sneaking around

Love in this town ain't begging to stay

 

Let it be good, let it be all right

Everything we see is made for lovers

Let it be good, let it be all right

Everything we see is made for lovers now
