Lyrics Café Amarillo - Local Natives

Café Amarillo

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
