When she asked to meet again his eyes turned to cellophane
And his hands would linger on the ring garnishing her finger
But the lace that peaked out between the buttons on her blouse
He knew he would only succumb to her
Soft radio tones tried to hide their callous moans
the windows grew mist with their deepening breath
She pulled at his tie to taste what it hides
and dragged him down from above her
Keeping her secrets was his insurance
Cause up until now she had kept to her vows
Hearts like a house wine the dregs of what's left behind
Didn't want to hurt any others carpark lovers
Her fingernails ran along the back of his hand
As she passed expenditures that require his signature
From her wayward fringe her eyes met with his
And they met when the moonlight took over
Keeping his secrets was her insurance
cause anything she told spread like office cold
The years he'd worked harder climbing the ladder
would be worthless if she blew his cover, carpark lovers
His roulette of partners used to him working all hours
And getting in late and going for a shower
The pleasure to smell her when he undid his trousers
he knew there couldn't be any other Carpark Lovers
