lyrics

Under a dark sky stained with streetlight
On a townhouse rooftop caked in dust
With underpriced warm deli beers in hand
Your little frame nestled in my shaking arms

This is a January stream in the Okavango plain
And when two hands meet and the eyes do just the same
This is the tickle when you whisper in my ear
This is the hill we climbed before we disappeared

Down the ladder, creak through the front door
No one but the cat to catch us here
Wonder what I’d do if I could see you one more time
We can make these night hours last, a hundred million years

This is a January stream in the Okavango plain
And when two hands meet and the eyes do just the same
This is the tickle when you whisper in my ear
This is the hill we climbed before we disappeared

Then your phone rings at the sleepy crack of dawn
Lift your little head and squint your eyes
We tiptoe to the door, I watch you swallowed by the streets
I lay back down, hold your pillow close, ’til the next time I can smell your hair

This is a January stream in the Okavango plain
And when two hands meet and the eyes do just the same
This is the tickle when you whisper in my ear
This is the hill we climbed before we disappeared

This is the silhouette of an island miles high
This is the water as it falls a thousand feet
Beneath the bridge, your head rests on my thigh
And what would I not give for a smile so sweet?
