Respectable Dive
Let’s meet in a respectable diveOn the somewhat safe streetAnd have a beerWe’ve both kept our eyes on the ballWe know the lyrics to them allThese songs of fear
And baby I love youAnd I do not want to lose youBut I’m not able to put my cards on the tableAnd if you only knew of the hand that I’m holdingYou would be blushingAnd I am so far from bluffingIn this respectable dive
I know that we never play cards or write postcardsWhen we’re both in the same townBut still I remember some notes on the kitchen counterBack from work I’ve found
And baby I love youAnd I do not want to lose youBut I’m not able to put my cards on the tableAnd if you only knew of the hand I was holdingYou would be blushingAnd I am so far from bluffingIn this respectable dive
Baby I love youAnd I do not want to lose youBaby I love youAnd I do not want to lose you
