Retrograde

Meet me at our corner after dark
I swear this city's never seen a light as bright as ours
It's taking every fiber of our beings to fend it off
But how long can this go on?
Rode the early thrills of secrecy
When you're with your friends
I'm just a passing stranger on the street
These pent-up feelings brim inside
Until I'm shoulder-deep
And calling for a lifeboat
Wish I didn't know this pain (oh-oh)
Lovers caught in retrograde (oh-oh)
The more we go against the grain
The more it hurts
All in retrograde
Love in retrograde
Movie night I'll sneak in through the back
I know the drill
We spare your mom and dad the heart attack
Their pride and joy
You're framed in every corner of this flat
And I'd never fit the picture
Yeah, we're talking about our day in the Sun
Like it's imminent
Though I suspect it'll never come
Keeping our hopes
That this isn't a false start
Is it time to face the facts?
Wish I didn't know this pain (oh-oh)
Lovers caught in retrograde (oh-oh)
The more we go against the grain
The more it hurts
All in retrograde
Love in retrograde
I promise I won't forget you
When I'm leaving this all behind
Can you promise you won't forget me
When you find yourself on the outside?
