Laundry Room

from Curtains by Paris Street

lyrics

I know that you're itching to get laid
And, in the past, I'd be rushing to scratch
That itch right away
And when I arrived I still thought that I might
But not tonight

In your apartment complex's laundry room
You are leaning against the washer
Waiting for me to make my move
No one would ever even have to know
We're all alone

There is a girl across town that I hold dear
She is innocently sleeping
And she doesn't know I'm here
This is not where i told her I would be
But she trusts me

I met her shortly after our last tryst
I know I really don't deserve her
And she doesn't deserve this
I do not love her, but it's early - things can change
So I won't yet stray

And, of course, I'm aware
Of our prior affairs
Where I repeatedly gave in to your charms
Like the time on the stairs
With your leg in the air
Anchored down by the weight of my arms

And I'll admit it's tempting, but I
Think I'll try to be good this time

Well, I'm sorry, but I must be going soon
I made no promise to do anything
But use your laundry room
And I'm thankful, but it's getting late - besides
My clothes are dry

Thank you, goodnight
