lyrics

Sun high, dead July
Sleep with open windows
Your scent still on my skin
It hasn’t been so long
But I’m learning all your angles
Play ‘em over like a good song

Got it bad, cinematic banter,
heavy breathing
Say you’re happy here
Think I believe it
But I’m careful when we’re kissing
Still waiting for permission

Your hands drip gold
Over me until I glow
You grin, I fold
But I’m getting tired of laying low
Each time you call home
Tell me, does your mama know?

Neon, turn you on
Leaving after midnight
My birthday in your phone
I know your friends by name
So it isn’t far to wonder
Do you talk about me the same?

Your hands drip gold
Over me until I glow
You grin, I fold
But I’m getting tired of laying low
Each time you call home
Tell me, does your mama know?

Tell me, does your mama
Tell me, does your mama

No pressure
Slow and measured
I know what I said but listen
Close for comfort
Who will run first
I am done for
I am done for

I am done for (repeat)

Your hands drip gold
Tell me, does your mama know?
Each time you call home
Tell me, does your mama
