[Verse 1]
You poured that love bumbu rum
In a chipped old glass
Said, "Ian, here's to every road
We never passed"
Ashtray full of almost-plans
Vinyl humming low
You drew a map on my wrist
Said, "This is where we go"
[Chorus]
Love bumbu rum on your tongue
You laugh, and the ceiling comes undone
Is it the drink or the way that you say
"I wish you were here, I wish you would stay"
Spinning in circles, slow as the moon
Love bumbu rum
And the night ends too soon
[Verse 2]
Your eyes like stormy film
Burning soft and strange
You said, "The dark side of my heart
Never wants to change"
Cards spread on the kitchen floor
Future, past, and doubt
You kissed the edge of every fear
And turned the lights all out
[Chorus]
Love bumbu rum on your tongue
You laugh, and the ceiling comes undone
Is it the drink or the way that you say
"I wish you were here, I wish you would stay"
Spinning in circles, slow as the moon
Love bumbu rum
And the night ends too soon
[Bridge]
Will we wake up
Friends, or fire?
Am I your truth
Or just desire?
You trace my name
In melting ice
Say, "Every paradise
Has a price" (ohh)
[Chorus]
Love bumbu rum on your tongue
You laugh, and the ceiling comes undone
Is it the drink or the way that you say
"I wish you were here, I wish you would stay"
Spinning in circles, slow as the moon
Love bumbu rum
And it’s gone
Too soon
