The candles are all burned out at Park Avalon
The restaurant's closed and the customers gone
There's just you and me
A lock and the key
And you want to stay and make love
On the bar
And I know men to you are demons and love is a sword
That you stab in stray directions, but I keep walking forward
But you don't try your emotions
You just go through the motions and you're gone
And leaving love at the bar

And I watch you drink with reckless abandon
And I watch you think
That nobody knows what pain is but you
But that's not true
'Cause I feel the pain of loving you

Our bodies move slowly but the breathing is fast
Your legs wrapped around me, your eyes red and glassed
Tell me, who do you see
When you're making love with me
I just see you, much too beautiful

And I watch you drink with reckless abandon
And I watch you think
That nobody knows what pain is but you
But that's not true
'Cause I feel the pain of loving you

And we should be in Paris or Cancun
With the moon in our eyes talking about children
We should be anywhere but here we are
And you just take your tips and dry your lips
And don't kiss me goodnight
