[Verse 1]
Thank my mom for home and thank my god for health
If not for all this lonesome, would I be myself?
Oh, the irony of slipping back to yours
After these autumn weeks, unbuttoning your shorts
We close the bedroom door
[Chorus]
Getting alone with you was hard enough
The first time I was alone with you (Ah)
Getting alone with you was hard enough
The first time I was alone with you (Ah)
I knew
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, ah
[Verse 2]
From the mattress, ashing through your windowpane
Sorry I let the cat out on on the fire escape
Oh, the mastery you're keeping me in bed
Clicking your tongue to teeth, unsettled like a debt
You stare at me like we've not met
[Chorus]
Getting alone with you was hard enough
The first time I was alone with you (Ah)
Getting alone with you was hard enough
The first time I was alone with you (Ah)
I knew
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, ah
[Outro]
Getting alone with you was hard enough
The first time I was alone with you
