Lyrics
I got you home late
eleven thirty
a light at the door
I was proud,
You squeezed my hand
I felt it shaking
I kissed your mouth
I was proud
We didn't care
a face at the window
our breath in the air
as we said goodnight
It's gotten late
and we aren't talking
let's go our ways
I was proud
You said goodnight
but I didn't kiss you
I shut the door
I was proud
I didn't care
You stood in the doorway
a voice in the air
when we said goodbye
