You pull up the car with flashers flashing On and on and off And I complain about just how far I've got to walk with my guitar The doorman, he won't let me in And our fingers almost touch As he traces and x on the back of my hand So I can't drink with you the rest of the band Slippery sneaker soles, they stick To abandoned slicks of beer That reach out to touch the carpet and cups
So it knows that something's still there And I unknot knotted cables As you unknot knotted thoughts I unknot knotted cables As you unknot knotted thoughts About when we grow up And singing songs won't be enough And the way our shoulders touch Between the amps and guitars in the back of the van On the way home we don't talk
