[Verse 1]
Punch myself and still my eyes won't open
Lying there and listening to you breathe
Dog-eared airport novels
How-to-do-it magazines
Noises of the ocean will remind me of these scenes
[Verse 2]
Lying there just staring at your back
Tracing the rivers and the valleys that the sheets had made
Hardly perfect timing, for what he doesn't know
I'm gonna have to wake you, then I'm gonna have to go
[Chorus]
In the playground, you and me
We cannot grow up, we can commit adultery
In the playground, you and me
We cannot grow up, we can commit adultery
[Verse 3]
Glancing at the sunlight on your necklace
Thinking about the chains that didn't show
I'll mail this to you someday
Perhaps it isn't fair
I will find a precious thing, for you and I to share
[Chorus]
In the playground, you and me
We cannot grow up, we can commit adultery
In the playground, you and me
We cannot grow up, we can commit adultery
[Verse 4]
Now every single star in the night sky's coming down
And that one there is gonna hit on me
I could regret it, I should forget it
It will wrestle me down if I let it
[Chorus]
In the playground, you and me
We cannot grow up, we can commit adultery
In the playground, you and me
We cannot grow up, we can commit adultery
[Verse 5]
Staring at your jewellery and your history
Memories all blu-tacked on the wall
They keep on falling down, they leave without a sound
I'm terrified to phone you and I want to come around
[Chorus/Outro]
Go in the playground, you and me
We cannot grow up, we can commit adultery
In the playground, you and me
We cannot grow up, we can commit adultery
In the playground, you and me
We cannot grow up, we can commit adultery
Adultery
Adultery
Adultery
Adultery
