written about Maile and I in Rio, about the building we stayed in, the people we overheard

lyrics

Room 304

my song begins here in a cheap hotel room
my love and i waking up bathed in the light
that comes from the courtyard filled with the sounds
escaping through windows in everyone’s lives

we’re wind in the trees
this afternoon we leave
an hour at the beach
a hundred city streets
we’re wind in the waves
we have to go today
we’re running to the gate
hurry up we’re late!

the snoring and spitting the wind and the water
the silhouette’s dark and the teenage girl’s light
i am the foreigner, the insatiable voyeur
hooked on the sounds, imagining lives

we’re wind in the trees
this afternoon we leave
an hour at the beach
a hundred city streets
we’re wind in the waves
we have to go today
we’re running to the gate
hurry up we’re late!

someone is hammering, a radio is playing
an old lady’s rasp, a little boy’s whine
the clink of the plates, the echoes like mirrors
it’s all of our lives and we are the spies

we’re wind in the trees
this afternoon we leave
an hour at the beach
a hundred city streets
we’re wind in the waves
we have to go today
we’re running to the gate
hurry up we’re late!

my song ends as ecstatic cries from my lover
mix with the cries of a baby outside
distracted by harmony born in the courtyard
my love and i stop for a moment and smile

we’re wind in the trees
this afternoon we leave
an hour at the beach
a hundred city streets
we’re wind in the waves
we have to go today
we’re running to the gate
hurry up we’re late!
