Vanessa Carlton - White Houses |
[00:00.12] |
Album: Harmonium |
[00:01.22][00:01.79][03:38.96][03:41.05] |
|
[00:02.50] |
Crashed on the floor when I moved in |
[00:05.91] |
This little bungalow with some strange new friends |
[00:09.36] |
Stay up too late, and I'm too thin |
[00:12.97] |
We promise each other it's til the end |
[00:16.48] |
Now we're spinning empty bottles |
[00:18.33] |
It's the five of us |
[00:20.11] |
With pretty eyed boys girls die to trust |
[00:23.69] |
I can't resist the day |
[00:27.01] |
No, I can't resist the day |
[00:30.84] |
Jenny screams out and it's no pose |
[00:34.39] |
'Cause when she dances she goes and goes |
[00:37.87] |
Beer through the nose on an inside joke |
[00:41.38] |
I'm so excited, I haven't spoken |
[00:45.01] |
And she's so pretty, and she's so sure |
[00:48.19] |
Maybe I'm more clever than a girl like her |
[00:51.95] |
The summer's all in bloom |
[00:55.51] |
The summer is ending soon |
[00:58.62] |
It's alright and it's nice not to be so alone |
[01:03.82][01:44.48] |
But I hold on to your secrets in white houses |
[01:11.55] |
Maybe I'm a little bit over my head |
[01:15.02] |
I come undone at the things he said |
[01:18.51] |
And he's so funny in his bright red shirt |
[01:21.83] |
We were all in love and we all got hurt |
[01:25.66] |
I sneak into his car's cracked leather seat |
[01:29.13] |
The smell of gasoline in the summer heat |
[01:32.23] |
Boy, we're going way too fast |
[01:36.13] |
It's all too sweet to last |
[01:39.31] |
It's alright |
[01:41.04] |
And I put myself in his hands |
[01:50.52] |
Love, or something ignites in my veins |
[01:55.15] |
And I pray it never fades in white houses |
[02:01.91] |
My first time, hard to explain |
[02:09.04] |
Rush of blood, oh, and a little bit of pain |
[02:15.98] |
On a cloudy day, it's more common than you think |
[02:23.04] |
He's my first mistake |
[02:45.37] |
Maybe you were all faster than me |
[02:48.77] |
Give each other up so easily |
[02:52.10] |
These silly little wounds will never mend |
[02:55.60] |
I feel so far from where I've been |
[02:58.76] |
So I go, and I will not be back here again |
[03:04.25] |
I'm gone as the day is fading on white houses |
[03:09.94] |
I lie, put my injuries all in the dust |
[03:14.67] |
In my heart is the five of us |
[03:18.48][03:28.99][03:32.20] |
In white houses |
[03:20.60] |
And you, maybe you'll remember me |
[03:25.38] |
What I gave is yours to keep |
[03:35.79] |
In white houses |
[03:39.56] |
