Just Us Tonight

Intro

(ta-ta-ta) ooh, ooh — crackle like a record spinning

yeah, yeah, la-la (come on)

Verse

You slide in like a secret on a summer cassette

Lipstick grin, a laugh I can't forget

We trade small stories over cheap champagne

The jukebox hums, your hand finds mine again

Pre-chorus

Lights slow down, the room folds in

Words get soft, and we begin (and we begin)

Something hushes out the noise, it's true

All the chaos blurs and points to you

Chorus

I think it's just us tonight, just us tonight (oh-oh)

I think it's only you and I, you and I (yeah-yeah)

Spin me closer, hold me under the lights (hold me)

I think it's just us tonight, just us tonight (ooh)

Verse

Your denim jacket smells like roadside summer rain

We carve little maps of where we'll meet again

Laughing at the clock that can't keep up with us

Dancing on the edge of something reckless and plush

Pre-chorus

The crowded room feels miles away

When your breath tells me what your eyes can't say (say)

Time slows down to a trembling cue

And the only rhythm left is you

Chorus

I think it's just us tonight, just us tonight (na-na)

I think it's only you and I, you and I (hey)

Spin me closer, hold me under the lights (hold me)

I think it's just us tonight, just us tonight (oh-oh)

Bridge

(ta-ta) Fingers tracing paper stars, we make a wish

(la-la) Neon-free confessions, soft and misfit

The city hums but we don't hear a sound

We fold the world up small and keep it in our hands (keep it, keep it)

Verse

Midnight radio, our song squeaks in the groove

You whisper silly plans and I believe you move

A little reckless, a little brave, a little wild and new

We steal a little forever in a minute made for two

Pre-chorus

Everyone's a blur, the night is kind

We find the corners that our names can hide (yeah)

Under lamplight flickers, under velvet sky

We're a secret written with a lover's sigh

Chorus

I think it's just us tonight, just us tonight (oh-oh)

I think it's only you and I, you and I (yeah-yeah)

Spin me closer, hold me under the lights (hold me)

I think it's just us tonight, just us tonight (ooh)

Chorus

I think it's just us tonight, just us tonight (oh-oh)

I think it's only you and I, you and I (yeah-yeah)

Spin me closer, hold me under the lights (hold me)

I think it's just us tonight, just us tonight (fade)

Outro

(la-la-la) ooh, ooh — record crackle, slow fade

(na-na) just us tonight...
