The Wedding Present
Santa Ana Winds
We keep exchanging glances all night long until at last her friends go home
That's when my heart starts beating faster
Outside, the Santa Ana Winds are blowing hot
Inside, some things are happening that really should not
When she says: "I'm handing myself to you entirely, completely"
Before asking, sweetly: "And are you falling for me too?"
And that's when I pretend that I don't have a girlfriend
I must look anxious because she fixes me with this gaze
"Face it, Tiger, you just hit the jackpot," she says
We laugh together but I'm trying hard to ignore the fact I've won the jackpot means I've lost a whole lot more
Then she says: "I'm handing myself to you entirely, completely"
Before asking, sweetly: "And are you falling for me too?"
And that's when I pretend that I don't have a girlfriend
"I'm handing myself to you entirely, completely"
Then she asks, sweetly: "And are you falling for me too?"
And that's when I pretend that I don't have a girlfriend
