'cause there's this tune i found that makes me think of you somehow and i play it on repeat, until i fall asleep [...] so have you got the guts? been wondering if your heart's still open and if so i wanna know what time it shuts. simmer down and pucker up, i'm sorry to interrupt, it's just i'm constantly on the cusp of trying to kiss you, i don't know if you feel the same as i do, but we could be together if you wanted to’’

• do i wanna know?

‘‘and the thrill of the chase moves in mysterious ways, so in case i'm mistaken, i just wanna hear you say "you got me, baby. are you mine?"’’

• r u mine?

‘‘so we all go back to yours and you sit and talk to me on the floor, there's no need to show me 'round baby, i feel like i've been here before; i've been wondering whether later when you tell everybody to go, will you pour me one for the road?’’

• mad sounds

‘‘there's all these secrets that i can't keep, like in my heart there's that hotel suite and you lived there so long, it's kinda strange now you're gone’’

• fireside

‘‘and as i arrived i thought i saw you leaving, carrying your shoes; decided that once again i was just dreaming of bumping into you’’

• why'd you only call me when you're high?

‘‘well you cured my january blues, yeah you made it all alright. i got a feeling i might have lit the very fuse that you were trying not to light.’’
