Private Affair
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Keep me boy
and New York's a jungle
Lovers wanted
Cope the knife companion
I wipe the sweat from my face
In the summertime
I fear I'm gonna lose my mind
But she's always avoiding falling in love
Yes, it's due to a life of a private affair
She's always avoiding falling in love
Yes, it's due to a life of a private affair
Curtains clap and thrown open window
Eyes are watching
Neon lights, the cracks in the pavement lure me away
In the summertime
I fear I'm gonna lose my mind
But she's always avoiding falling in love
Yes, it's due to a life of a private affair
She's always avoiding falling in love
Yes, it's due to a life of a private affair
I was a playboy from Dubai to Paris
She wore a necklace made of pharaohs bones
Made our acquaintance on a sheet less mattress
She pressed my lips, she said this won't last long
But she's always avoiding falling in love
Yes, it's due to a life of a private affair
She's always avoiding falling in love
Yes, it's due to a life of a private affair
She's always avoiding falling in love
Yes, it's due to a life of a private affair
She's always avoiding falling in love
Yes, it's due to a life of a private affair
