Instant of the Hour After Lyrics – Suzanne Vega

Instant of the Hour After Lyrics by Suzanne Vega

That’s enough out of you tonight
My darling
This show is over for now
The monkey is dead

I detest all this drunken brawling
Now let’s see if you can make it
Into this bed
How I love you

How I loathe you
It’s a sharp, quick love I feel
My darling
But you’re not as drunk as you seem

So why pretend
On your cheek, that sweet shadow falling
The pulse in your neck
How I’ll know it

Right to the end
How I love you
How I loathe you
“Reverberating acuity”

“Lousy simile”
“Vacant majesty”
In the instant of the hour after
Well right now, it’s you and me

My darling
Trapped here inside of this bottle
Drowning like flies
When the frenzy’s over

We’re crawling
Specimens spent and exhausted
We press to the sides
How I love you

How I loathe you
