Gallant - Hips

Saw you reading “Misery” in the morning
You were quick to say your brain wasn’t too deep in it
You just love the way the pages hit your fingertips
Two is company 'til tires screech in the parking lot
Three windows with some shoulders hanging out of them
You look at me and say, “We shouldn’t have run into them”

Now your heart is racing, knees are shaking, you’re beside yourself
Is this a carnal message or a cry for help? Ah
I should look behind your hair and see the demons we were dealt
But my foolish brain can’t think of nothing else, no

It’s thinking 'bout your hips on mine
Don’t care if it’s gone tonight
Insanity in disguise is alright, alright
Wait... not the perfect time
Brainwaves preoccupied
Keep seeing it in my mind
Your hips on mine
Your hips on mine

Somehow I grab your hand and we both take off running
That’s what we get for growing up on a corner where the cops don’t come when you call them, oh
I say, “The odds that we outrun them increase if you tether yourself to me”
You put your hands on my shoulders, ah
Tell me to pull you in closer, ooh

Now my heart is racing, knees are shaking, I’m beside myself
My anxiety wreaks havoc on my health, oh
We take shelter underneath your parents' Pennsylvania deck
But my brain don’t know if we’ve escaped them yet, no

'Cos it’s thinking 'bout your hips on mine
Don’t care if it’s gone tonight
Insanity in disguise is alright, alright
Wait... not the perfect time
Brainwaves preoccupied
Keep seeing it in my mind
Your hips on mine
Your hips on mine
