Lyrics
We could try to guess each other's wishes
We could try to understand each other's desires or wishes.
Telling secrets while washing the dishes
Sharing intimate moments and confiding in each other while doing everyday tasks like washing dishes.
When you give us just 25 minutes more
Asking for just a little more time, specifically 25 minutes.
Fighting over which show to decide on
Engaging in a playful argument over which TV show to watch.
Making love to one side of a vinyl;
Expressing intimacy by making love with one side of a vinyl record playing.
If we had some more time, we could do it all
Reflecting on the potential for a fuller and more complete life if there was more time available.
And the clock keeps ticking on
Noticing the passage of time.
It's gotten pretty damn late, I know
Acknowledging that it's quite late.
But can you stay just a little longer before you go?
Requesting the other person to stay a bit longer before leaving.
Before you go
Reiterating the plea for the person to stay before departing.
Painting pictures of when we are older
Imagining and discussing future scenarios or moments when they are older.
Singing the same line over and over
Singing the same line repeatedly, possibly referring to a shared favorite song or memory.
Sharing stories that only we know about
Sharing private stories that are known only to the two individuals involved.
Getting groceries turns into a night out
Turning mundane activities like grocery shopping into enjoyable and memorable experiences.
Going fast on my bike with the lights out
Engaging in adventurous activities like riding a bike fast with the lights off.
Twenty thousand ideas we could throw around
Generating numerous creative ideas that they could explore together.
And the clock keeps ticking on
Continuing to observe the passage of time.
It's gotten pretty damn late, I know
Recognizing the lateness of the hour.
But can you stay just a little longer before you go?
Repeating the request for the person to stay a bit longer before leaving.
Before you go
Reiterating the plea for the person to stay before departing.
And the clock keeps ticking on
Noting the ongoing passage of time.
It's gotten pretty damn late, I know
Acknowledging that it's quite late once again.
But can you stay just a little longer before you go?
Persisting in the request for the person to stay a bit longer before leaving.
Before you go
Reiterating the plea for the person to stay before departing.
Before you go
Once again, expressing the desire for the person to stay before leaving.
