Johnathan Rice - Hollow Jubilee lyrics

Artist: Johnathan Rice

album: The Long Game


How my fingers found you so quickly in the dark
Hardly strictly business
Speaking from the heart
On the bathroom sink
I lifted up your skirt
How was I to know
Just how badly I'd get hurt
Everyone was talking backwards
Drowning on their feet
I noticed how the rose was clenched too tightly in your teeth
We were spoiling for a fight
The special way we'd flirt
I dragged you to the garden
We did it in the dirt
You pretend to be you
I'll pretend to be me
And I'll see you at the hollow jubilee
In a post orgasmic haze
Sometimes some truth escapes
When the pressure is relieved, one can relive the better days
When we were as one
You thought I was too young
Now sometimes you feel something else
When the chill of evening comes
You pretend to be you
I'll pretend to be me
Hiding at the hollow jubilee
Our loves lies in repose and everybody knows
You weave the fabric of your life into your onstage clothes
I always pictured you and me
Growing old disgracefully
But now I see the club's sold out
And there's no room for me
There's a blindfold for you and a mirror for me
Hanging at the hollow jubilee
So, you pretend to be you, I'll pretend to be me
When I see you at the hollow jubilee
