Lovers they walk on the bright side of the street And the city it shines in surprise in the ice cream heat And I want to be kissed in the haze of this hotel room Before the evening steals the afternoon And the traffic it shakes as my travel shaver drones And the maid she mistakes my 'come in' for a 'please leave me alone' But I want to be held in the swell of her sweet perfume Before the evening steals the afternoon Before the daylight dies and the dusty sky gets rusted up with tungsten Before the phony night stakes its claim on walkers waiting at the junction From the blue shade of the park, couples emerge Dropping hands like they're still scared to get caught But I want to be caught in their rage of embraces too Before the evening steals the afternoon
