We met on a rooftop swimming up for oxygen It overlooked the Sunset but we faced the other way It was cold but her voice was shot And downstairs they were packing it in So we toughed it out Placing bets on jets as they rose above the bay And I was gonna bring her apples When she was in need After I'd s**ed the cyanide from the seeds I was gonna bring her apples There were complaints and the police came But we left no shred of proof And as we leapt from roof to roof she said she'd be my alibi And when I said I'd do the same she just smiled And said she wasn't the type to get caught But when I kissed her forehead it was hot And she was shivering against the night sky And now I'm gonna bring her apples When she's in need After I s** the cyanide from the seeds I'm gonna bring her apples I'm not trying to change you We met on a rooftop swimming up for oxygen It overlooked the Sunset but we faced the other way It was cold but your voice was shot And downstairs they were packing it in So we toughed it out Placing bets on jets as they rose above the bay I'll have extra air for you Any time you start to drown I'll keep you warm When the sunrise isn't reaching through your door I'll give you a number to count up to When we're touching down I'll bring you apples when your throat is sore
