lyrics

When you made a motion
As if to leave
At eleven-thirty
On New Year’s Eve
Discombobulated
In a flash I knew
Something unexpected
I’m in love with you

In a conversation
For the time it took
To debate the merits
Of important books
The sophistication
Of your points of view
And your sense of humor
I’m in love with you

Elevated spirits and alcohol
Posh party or pub crawl?
The makings of a good, old-fashioned free-for-all
It’s a long, long, long haul

From a lively dance floor
To the hotel bar
And the tiny backseat
Of a rental car
The suburban landscape
That we motored through
Was a ghostly vision
I’m in love with you

I remember churches and highway signs
White dresses and white lines
We can make decisions at decision time
In a long, long, long time

In the early morning,
When I thought we might
Run away together,
You caught your flight
In a daze, I wondered
Could you also be
In the same condition
And in love with me?
