Would you share a smoke with a stranger, darlin'?
Could you share a moment with me?
I don't mind the social pollution, you know I can put it delicately
We'll practice the positions in due time, roll your eyes and slide me under your sleeve
Skip the intermission, there's no suspense, the audience is ready to leave
Soon I'll be swallowed with doubt
Soon you'll be freaking me out
Soon we'll be calling it something resembling love
'Cause you're the one, you're the one
That's fired off into the sun
'Cause you've got a future and I've got a past
So take a picture, baby, 'cause it ain't gonna last
I wanna be a Hollywood vampire, darlin', tell me what do you wanna be?
'Cause I could really use a distraction from the never-ending anxiety
Soon I'll be swallowed with doubt
Soon you'll be freaking me out
Soon we'll be calling it something resembling love
'Cause you're the one, you're the one
That's fired off into the sun
'Cause you've got a future and I've got a past
So take a picture, baby, 'cause it ain't gonna last
I don't have no enemies and I don't have no friends, you see
They're only all acquaintances whose names are now escaping me
Like business partners and the mix, underground associates
When turning over counterparts, why bother to exchange polite and quiet pleasantries
Or ask about their families?
Discretion is a virtue, information is a vice
One that I really simply can't afford, the rest is easy, praise the Lord
Experienced companions are covered well indeed
Soon I'll be swallowed with doubt
Soon you'll be freaking me out
Soon we'll be calling it something resembling love
'Cause you're the one, you're the one
That's fired off into the sun
'Cause you've got a future and I've got a past
So take a picture, baby, 'cause it ain't gonna last
'Cause you're the one, you're the one
That's fired off into the sun
'Cause you've got a future and I've got a past
So take a picture, baby, 'cause it ain't gonna last
