Eloping

I bet your eyes aren't really that blue,
I think they've been airbrushed in,
By an artist who doesn't care.

And I bet your hair isn't really that blonde.
But isn't it the way we wanted it to be?

And I bet you don't usually smile that much.
Especially with someone like me.

And I bet you really sweat,
But none of this is what I want to say to you.

I don't want to be dancing with the wallflower,
I want you ‘cause you've got painted toenails.
My tired arms ache just to hold you now.

I don't believe that you are still a virgin.
So what say we get a little closer?
Come with me I'll take you on an airplane now.

And London from above,
At night will look like...
A billion...
Lit candles.

And your face...
Will glow red...
At the sunrise.

And God knows I really want to travel.
God knows I really want to start anew...
With you!

And God knows...
God knows...
God knows...

I don't want to be dancing with the wallflower,
I want you ‘cause you've got painted toenails.
My tired arms ache just to hold you now.

I don't believe that you are still a virgin.
So what say we get a little closer?
My tired arms ache just to hold you now.

I don't want to be dancing with the wallflower,
I want you ‘cause you've got painted toenails.
My tired arms ache just to hold you now.

I don't believe that you are still a virgin.
So what say we get a little closer?
Come with me I'll take you on an airplane now!
