Studio 6 - Matt Maltese

I see two lovers kiss on the street by Studio 6

And I remember the petrol-thick mist, we settled our lips

And I remember hearing your father laugh

While we made love in the next room, we made love in the next room

And I remember one of those mornings I, I reached out to wake you,

but I learned that he’d taken you back

I look through the glass to housing blocks and energy fans

I see slow familiar lovers, I see them pull their curtains back

And I remember pulling your curtains back, then we made love to the old moon,

we made love to the old moon

And I remember one of those mornings I, I reached out to wake you,

but I learned that he’d taken you back

And I remember you wearing that pink August coat

that my grandmother wore as my grandfather’s love

You’re a little more clear with this wine in my hand

And it colours my tongue as if your lipstick has run

And I remember hearing your father laugh

While we made love in the next room, we made love in the next room
