Café Amarillo - Local Natives, Jonathan Wilson

Ooh, my love, I remember

Waking up to the sound of your voice

Digitized and destroyed

I was halfway to Calais from Dover

When the word had finally come over

Thought we said never again?

Ooh, my love, I can’t believe

The headline crawls across the screen

I couldn’t fall asleep

And it’s raining on both ends of the phone

You’re in the lobby and I’m on my way home

But there’s no shelter without you there

Some things are so simple

They’re impossible to explain

The Café Amarillo

Stay dry when you’re caught in the rain

We’re caught in the rain

I don’t want to die before I learn to live

Looking for my exits

Still so bad at making plans I plan to keep

How long has it been?

And it’s raining on both ends of the phone

You’re in the lobby and I’m on my way home

But there’s no shelter without you there

Some things are so simple

They’re impossible to explain

You can’t un-pull (Surely not) a trigger

Or stay dry when you’re caught in the rain, we’re caught in the rain

I long for when the sun was in our eyes

One day, forever, the sun in our eyes
