There was something going on that night
But I don't know what it was
There was something going on that night
I was waiting, we were just waiting for it
Verse 3
D#m A#m
I forgot everything I knew in the ancient sea that night
D#m A#m
When she slipped her dress off shivering and clung to me so tight
D#m A#m
Then she whispered in my ear, "There is nowhere else but here",
X Am
Nowhere, nowhere
Chorus
There was something going on that night
But I don't know what it was
There was something going on that night
I was waiting, we were just waiting
You don't know yourself
You don't know yourself
You don't know yourself
until she's had her way with you
Verse 4
D#m A#m
We spent three weeks in a cheap hotel corroding by the sea
D#m A#m
Tangled up in sheets and love and ancient misery
D#m A#m
One day I woke to see her leave, she had an eagle on her sleeve
D#m A#m
The last I heard she took the bird to catch snakes in Mexico
Chorus
There was something going on that night
But I don't know what it was
There was something going on that night
I was waiting, we were just waiting for it
Verse 5
