RUFUS WAINWRIGHT - Respectable Dive lyrics

rate me

Lets meet in a respectable dive(

On the somewhat safe street(And have a beer(

Weve both kept our eyes on the ball(

We know the lyrics to them all(These songs of fear

These songs of fear

And baby I love you

And I dont want to lose you

But Im not able to put my cards on the table

And only if you knew of the hand Im holding

You would be blushing

And I am so far from bluffing

In this respectable dive

I know that we never play cards or write postcards

When were both in the same town

But still I remember some notes on the kitchen counter

Back from work Ive found

And baby I love you

And I do not want to lose you

But Im not able to put my cards on the table

And only if you knew of the hand Im holding

You would be blushing

And I am so far from bluffing

In this respectable dive

Baby I love you

And do not want to lose you

Baby I love you

And do not want to lose you
