The Lucksmiths - A Sobering Thought (Just When One Was Needed) lyrics

Sunlight seeps beneath the bedroom door The new day can no longer be denied You're puzzled by the puddles on the floor It's time that I came clean about last night I got a phone call from a friend I seldom see Who thought we had some catching up to do Suffice to say I didn't disagree And when I left I left the porch light on for you Oh, it was such a sultry night Half the city was outside Just like moths drawn to the lights And the stars were several So we found ourselves a mediocre bar And lost ourselves amongst the demimonde A beer for every year that we'd let pa** And at "time" we wondered where the time had gone Oh, but the breeze was beautiful As we stumbled past the school And upon the swimming pool It was just too perfect Atop the cyclone fence I could almost see the sense in heading home But the laughter of a friend From the shadows of the shallow end… Oh, when we finally fled the scene Drunk and giddy with chlorine God, I almost felt fifteen Slinking down the street at night Another minute more And we both would have been caught It's a sobering thought Just when one was needed
