I met you on the porch in the drizzle
the night mild, the lamp's yellow glowed
I asked you why we always meet out here
you said 'it's where no one else goes'
'it's where no one else goes'
Save for some shadows and a few rays of light
I could tell that you were right
It was just the two of us and the rain
and an ashtray high as Pompeii
an ashtray high as Pompeii
Then you turned to me and said
'Can't you see? Oh, can't you see?
Some people wait all their lives
to be looked at like this,
oh, just like this'
You knocked me out of the ash and into the night
Standing there as the rain wet your hair
and the party growing cold inside
I said 'there's always a time when you tire of the stories
and have to go out to the balcony,
and find what you can't find inside'
I want everyday to be a celebration
but it turns into a rescue mission
You know that feeling of pulling your courage
from the wreck of old constitutions
of self and societal illusions
Then you turned to me and said
'Can't you see? Oh, can't you see?
Some people wait all their lives
to be looked at like this,
oh, just like this'
You knocked me out of the ash and into the night
Let's just stay out here tonight
