I’m in no hurry,
School's out, you're calling it different now
Struck it off your time,
Forget it
I’m on your corner,
I want to stop the show,
Another reason let’s you in
So close up the shops right now
'Cause now that I’ve paid myself to stay
So hold you down,
I might find my mind's on nothing,
(I can wait another day)
Hold the key and
I’ll ask it if you want
So hold you down,
I might find my mind's on nothing,
(I can wait another day)
Hold the key and
I’ll ask it if you want
(Turn it down!)
Struck it off your time,
Forget it
You’re out of offers,
You’ve got to check the notice,
Another reason let’s you in,
To call off the shots right now
'Cause now that I’ve paid myself to stay
So hold you down,
I might find my mind's on nothing,
(I can wait another day)
Hold the key and
I’ll ask it if you want
So hold you down,
I might find my mind's on nothing,
(I can wait another day)
Hold the key and
I’ll ask it if you want
(Turn it down!)

How Can You

When I wake up abroad
Tangled up by unknowns
I feel a strange warmth by my side
I know what you mean
There's pleasure in taking it slow
Never heard a lovelier voice
And the subtleties it hides
Harnessing powers beneath the tones
Whatever remains of me
The unbearable weight of water
How can you say "just hold it down"?
How can you say "don't swallow propane"?
How can you stand so unaware?
How can you caress every drop in the rain?
How can you weave together words
In a way I'll happily misunderstand?
And I've tucked my shirt tight
Walked towards the bar lights
To take you for drinks even if just tonight
Champagne in the park
Well now that sounds like a plan
I don't know what I do
Half or most of the time
But now I've got a certain aim
All I wanna do is see your face
Bypass the terror, surrender, be reckless
How can you say "just hold it down"?
How can you say "don't swallow propane"?
How can you stand so unaware?
How can you caress every drop in the rain?
How can you weave together words
In a way I think I now can understand?

Marina Bay Sands

Take my heart, take my hand
Take me down to the Bay Sands
And we'll take everything they've got
'Cause we could make perfect team
Co-stars on closed circuit screens
Make them choke on their cigars
No matter how they stack the deck
There's just so much waiting for us yet
I'm only asking for a little stake
We've come too far now to walk away
I'd hate to be the house tonight
'Cause I'm tripping over winning dice
I don't want to say it twice
And I'm not betting on a second time
You know I'd hate to be the house tonight
'Cause I'm all out of two through nines
I don't want to say it twice, I know it's alright
I've never been the type to guess
Play my cards close to my chest
But I can't let this get away
You caught me with a textbook heist
Now spinning wheels and flashing lights
Play each time I see your face
No matter how they stack the deck
There's just so much waiting for us yet
I'm only asking for a little stake
We've come too far now to walk away
I'd hate to be the house tonight
'Cause I'm tripping over winning dice
I don't want to say it twice
And I'm not betting on a second time
You know I'd hate to be the house tonight
'Cause I'm all out of two through nines
I don't want to say it twice, I know it's alright
