The Wedding Present - Santa Ana Winds Lyrics

You can change the answers all night long until at last her
Friends go home, that's when my heart starts beating faster
Outside the Santa Ana winds are blowing hot
Inside some things are happening that really should not

When she says "I'm handing myself to you
Entirely, completely", before asking sweetly
"And are you falling for me too?"
And that's when I pretend that I don't have a girlfriend

I must look anxious because she fixes me with this gaze
"Face it Tiger, you just hit the jackpot!" she says
We laugh together but I'm trying hard to ignore
The fact I've won the jackpot means I've lost a whole lot more

Then she says "I'm handing myself to you
Entirely, completely", before asking sweetly
"And are you falling for me too?"
And that's when I pretend that I don't have a girlfriend

"I'm handing myself to you
Entirely, completely", then she asks sweetly
"And are you falling for me too?"
And that's when I pretend that I don't have a girlfriend
