You pull in close
Laugh in my ear
Promising nothing
Make the moment clear

One spinning room
Two shaking hands
We already know
This was never the plan

Lift me up high
To the sky
Just for a minute
Just for tonight
Bring me down easy
Soft as a sigh
Hold me like hello
Then we say goodbye

Late checkout time
Sign off the door
Coffee's all gone
Now we know the score

Your taxi waits
The trip's all paid
Whisper my name
Then you turn away

Lift me up high
To the sky
Just for a minute
Just for tonight
Bring me down easy
Soft as a sigh
Hold me like hello
Then we say goodbye

No big speech
No last try (no last try)
Just that look
That says we'll be fine

Lift me up high
To the sky
Just for a minute
Just for tonight
Bring me down easy
Soft as a sigh
Hold me like hello
Then we say goodbye
