[Verse 1] I keep the note in my sleeve Folded where you can't reach Black ink, small name On the back room key You never saw me arrive I move like rain on glass One hand on the latch And the whole night bends fast [Pre-Chorus] Say it soft Keep it low If they ask We don't know [Chorus] Clandestine, clandestine Meet me where the hall turns Clandestine, clandestine Hide it till the door burns Clandestine, clandestine You and me in plain sight (Clandestine, clandestine) [Verse 2] Your clothes on the floor Half a smile, half a warning Red thread on your wrist Like a secret still forming I leave before the dawn So the floorboards stay clean But your name in my mouth Still tastes like a scene [Pre-Chorus] Say it soft Keep it low If they ask We don't know [Chorus] Clandestine, clandestine Meet me where the hall turns Clandestine, clandestine Hide it till the door burns Clandestine, clandestine You and me in plain sight (Clandestine, clandestine) [Bridge] I don't need a witness I don't need a ring Just your hand on my knee And the hush that it brings [Final Chorus] Clandestine, clandestine Meet me where the hall turns Clandestine, clandestine Hide it till the door burns Clandestine, clandestine You and me in plain sight (Clandestine, clandestine)
