lyrics
May I suggest that lovers' etiquette be put aside for now
I think it best we slip out of here, lose ourselves & leave this ugly crowd
Tonight we are, tonight we are both stars
We're secret cabaret
We're Forget-Me-Nots to lovers in a dirty bed
Strangers in a fire
The big old silver moon, she fills & overflows
& I caught you by the throat 'cause I don't want you to go
Lovers chains weak hearts require
& lovers all feign their undying desire
If your heart shies from those flames
You'll wake up all alone
May I suggest this lovers' etiquette be put aside for now
I think it best we slip out of here
to lose ourselves & leave this ugly crowd
Tonight we are, tonight we are both stars
We're secret cabaret
We're Forget-Me-Nots
Two lovers in a dirty bed
Enemies
& the big old silver moon she fills and overflows
& I caught you by the throat 'cause I don't want you to go
A Lover's chains weak hearts require
& lovers all feign their undying desire
My heart shies from those flames
& I wake up all alone
Strangers In A Fire
We're Strangers In A Fire
