Silent Ivy waste of love



How long have we been here

Sitting on the floor

Pool-water martinis

And a towel under the door



I still don't really know you

Very well

How long have we been coming here

To the Silent Ivy Hotel



It'll only last

For a silent ivy minute

A silent ivy minute

A silent ivy minute



It'll only last

For a silent ivy minute

It'll only last a while



We could stay here for ever

And never get it together

Wouldn't matter whatsoever

We'll never get it together



I put your hair in an arrangement

With helium and tape

I decided I would love you

I decided not to wait



We have an arrangement

We give each other pain

A little mine for yours

It's all pretty much the same



It'll only last

For a silent ivy minute

A silent ivy minute

A silent ivy minute



It'll only last

For a silent ivy minute

It'll only last a while



We could stay here for ever

And never get it together

Wouldn't matter whatsoever

We'll never get it together



It's a waste of love

It's a waste of love, love

It's a waste of love, love, love

It's a waste of love

It's a waste of love, love

It's a waste of love, love, love



It'll only last

For a silent ivy minute

A silent ivy minute

A silent ivy minute



It'll only last

For a silent ivy minute

It'll only last a while



We could stay here for ever

And never get it together

Wouldn't matter whatsoever

We'll never get it together



It's a waste of love

It's a waste of love, love

It's a waste of love, love, love

It's a waste of love

It's a waste of love, love

It's a waste of love, love, love
