In the back of the taxi, you turned off the TV
And read me a book on your phone.
Here's the return of your skeleton key,
Oh, baby, the places we've gone…
If that was goodbye then I must be high,
You know I'll be seeing you soon.
If that was goodbye then the snow in July,
Is handed in the middle of June.
Give me your toothpaste, give me your ointment,
Give me your body and then
Keep this in amber, keep our appointment,
Remember the things that we said.
If that was goodbye then I must be high.
You must be the sugar I need.
If that was goodbye then I am a fly,
And the future's guaranteed.
'Cause when I'm with you, everything's treasure,
I forget what it's like to be gone.
I'm far from the town, in the suburbs of your pleasure,
I've been in exile so long…
I'll try not to stare at the sun, oh,
I'll try not to stare at the sun,
I'll try not to stare at the sun.
Go out and get coffee and synchronize showers,
I try not to look at the clock.
Goodbye to your castle, wave from the tower
And drop me a light from the dark.
If that was goodbye then you must be high,
And maybe I'm losing a thread.
If that was goodbye then the sea has run dry,
So I'll fill it with tears instead.

'Cause when I'm with you, everything's treasure,
I forget what it's like to be gone.
I'm far from the town, in the suburbs of your pleasure,
I've been in exile so long…
I'll try not to stare at the sun, oh,
I'll try not to stare at the sun,
I'll try not to stare at the sun.
