You look so good in the clothes of a poser |
|
And when you smiled all the kids fell apart here |
|
I know a place where it's warm and it's dry, dear |
|
Let me take you there |
|
North of the river all the streets are the same |
|
We can pretend that they don't know our name |
|
And the heat is turned all the way to full |
|
So don't pretend that you don't feel the pull |
|
I am trying to say |
|
What I want to say |
|
Without having to say "I love you" |
|
You look so good in the shoes of an outcast |
|
I kissed your throat every time they said it wouldn't last |
|
But then I knew you, |
|
I knew you, |
|
I knew you |
|
I really knew you |
|
We fell apart in the parties of the empty heart |
|
We danced the junkies in the shadows of bad modern art |
|
We clicked our heels and we wished we were home |
|
One more tab and your silk hits the chrome |
|
I am trying to say |
|
What I want to say |
|
Without having to say "I love you" |
|
I am trying to say |
|
What I want to say |
|
Without having to say "I love you" |
|
Springs comes in when |
|
I'm rolling up another one |
|
I draw the curtains in the glare of the same old sun |
|
We are collapsed in the act of just being here |
|
Three blues, two greens and a beer... |
