You said "I love you" so I said it too, I didn't know what else to say
Didn't even have a drink, I guess I didn't think to hold my tongue at bay
In defiance of all gravity she hummed a melody haunted by Satie
I wandered the ruins of Pilgrim State, yeah
I made America late again, yeah I was cruel
I held her high but I dropped her low down
I treated her like a fool
In defiance of all gravity she hummed a melody haunted by Satie
Lester, Lester, I'll always remember the copper kettle in December
Power's gone out, it's getting hard to breathe
Stand over the copper kettle and breathe in the steam
In defiance of all gravity she hummed a melody haunted by Satie
In defiance of all gravity
