On Holiday from Eric Barao by Eric Barao

On Holiday

snowed in at the corporate retreat
all they had left was the honeymoon suite
now the joke's complete
a heart-shaped bed that laughs with me alone

go or you'll never know
if you'd go too far
like just another lover on holiday
and no one's gonna know who you are
you're just another lover on holiday
just on holiday

eight o'clock the hotel bar's loud
the senior sales department took control of the crowd
i need to get out
and find a better place to hide my face downtown

go or you'll never know
if you'd go too far
like just another lover on holiday
and no one's gonna know who you are
you're just another lover on holiday
just on holiday

i never wanted more than just a Singapore sling or two
but it's not every day that someone looks at me the way you do
my mind got erased when your hand touched my face did I hear myself say

let's go or we'll never know
if we'd go too far
like just some other lovers on holiday
and no one's gonna know who we are
we're just some other lovers on holiday
just on holiday
