Clementine Was Right - Go It Careful

I been with the daughter of a democrat
I been with a hippie and an alley cat
Broken into swimming pools late at night
Made a lot of promises I wouldn't make twice

I been down in kitchens and on attic floors
Moaned into being and I been ignored
Called a lot of names here on god's green earth
Trust fall forever in this fucked up world

But if you are
Straight up with me
I will be
Straight up with you
Let's pretend
We know what we need
Make believe
This feels new

And if you go it careful with my heart
I will go it careful with your heart
If you take it easy on my night
I will take it easy on your night
No promises or secret codes
No promises or secret codes

I been asked over over SMS
We buy the same hustle time and time again
Tricked myself religious down in certain beds
Hallelujah in the morning watching you get dressed

I been too afraid to move my arm
When somebody pretty is sleeping on top
I got down to nothing in a lightning storm
Chase another wave that I can't wash off

But if you are
Straight up with me
I will be
Straight up with you
Let's pretend
We know what we need
Make believe
This feels new

And if you go it careful with my heart
I will go it careful with your heart
If you take it easy on my night
I will take it easy on your night
No promises or secret codes
No promises or secret codes

Promises! Secret codes!
Promises! Secret codes!
Promises! Secret codes!
Promises! Secret codes!
