Itâs not right but itâs now or never
And if I wait could I ever forgive myself?
On a night when the moon glows yellow in the riptide
With the light from the TVs buzzing in the house
Cuz Iâm gonna cut it where I can
And then Iâm gonna duck out behind them
If I ever had a chance itâs now then
But I never had the feeling I could offer that to you
To offer it to you would be cruel
When all I want to do is use, use you
He was a diplomatâs son
It was â81
Dressed in white with my car keys hidden in the kitchen
I could sleep wherever I lay my head
And the sight of your two shoes sitting in the bathtub
Let me know that I shouldnât give up just yet
Cuz Iâm gonna take it from Simon
And then Iâm gonna duck out behind them
If I ever had a chance itâs now then
But I never had the feeling I could offer that to you
To offer it to you would be cruel
When all I want to do is use, use you
He was a diplomatâs son
It was â81
I know, youâll say
Iâm not doing it right
But this is how I want it
I canât go back
To how I felt beforeâ
That night I smoked a joint
With my best friend
We found ourselves in bed
When I woke up he was gone
He was the diplomatâs son
It was â81
Looking out at the ice-cold water all around me
I canât feel any traces of that other place
In the dark when the wind comes racing off the river
Thereâs a car all black with diplomatic plates
