Keep Me Warm
Ron Pope
The Bedroom Demos (2008)

Central Park
Right after dark
We are laughing
Holding hands there in the grass
The summer sun has just begun to sing a lullabye to us and it feels so good

You and me
We've got everything we need

I'm not seeking shelter from no God-forsaken storm
Just lay with me tonight and keep me warm

Freckles on your arms
I pretend they're stars and find new constellations right beneath my hands
I don't know where the next six months will go
But I'm sure sunrise tomorrow will be better than the one before

You and me
We've got everything we need

I'm not seeking shelter from no God-forsaken storm
Just lay with me tonight and keep me warm
Just lay with me tonight and keep me warm

I count my footsteps and the avenues as I get close to you
Yes
I do
I can't ever seem to say quite what I really mean

You're beautiful and I'm not easy to please
So I will take the D train down from Harlem when you need me

You're beautiful and I'm not easy to please
So I will take the D train down from Harlem when you need me

I'm not seeking shelter from no God-forsaken storm
Just lay with me tonight and keep me warm
Lay with me tonight and keep me warm
Won't you lay with me tonight and keep me warm
