lyrics

you stood in the corner sipping whiskey
that first night i met you

the music was loud but i could tell
that i'd caught your eye too

so i said hello and you said
you had more drinks to get through

but it wasn't long before
we were naked in the bathroom

but love's just the game that you play
when you're drunk and lonely

and waltz is the rhythm you sway
when you're holding me

do your arms get tired
do your knees get weak
do your lips go numb when you kiss my cheek
or are you just holding on
for something to do with your hands?
darling kiss me and i'll give you
something to do with your hands

now it's been so long that the days
just get harder to live through

i might have gone somewhere else
that night if only i knew

how you'd look at me tonight
from sockets all sunken and blue

and ask me so dispassionately
hey boyfriend, wanna screw?

but love's just the game that you play
when you're drunk and lonely

and now you're all sobered up
and it's not so interesting

and the rules have all changed from the days
back when you were a young thing

now you're a husk of a man
with thin hair and bad skin
your bones are all rusting
and you're fresh out of gin
so are still holding on to have
something to do with your hands?
darling kiss me and i'll give you
something to do with your hands
