CHARLENE: |
|
Darling, why am I not surprised it rained today? |
|
Doesn't it seem my broken heart just tends to ride the wind |
|
But what will break the weight that's held up by a string? |
|
You don't reminisce like me 'bout how it was |
|
Romanticizing these redundant thoughts |
|
I'm never free |
|
So I wait for your parade to come rain down on me |
|
I'm running around hoping to find |
|
Somebody like the boy that I left behind |
|
Who loved all of me |
|
My fingernails and scatterbrain and crooked teeth |
|
DARREN: |
|
Dreams don't carry quite the weight they used to have |
|
Two kids looking through rosy colored glass |
|
Like fools in love |
|
The summer drugged our senses, filled our eyes with stars |
|
CHARLENE: |
|
But now we say goodnight confined to separate sides |
|
And you'll never compromise your current life to look behind |
|
You never planned to love me for this long a time |
|
I'm running around hoping to find |
|
Somebody like my one, though in time I'm sure |
|
I'll grow to know |
|
Another's eyes, another's laugh and skin and bones |
|
But til then, I'll keep on wanting you who I can't have |
|
Cuz with the distance came this awful dam |
|
And being in in love |
|
With someone I can't feel or hold or see or touch |
|
I'm running around hoping to find |
|
Somebody like my one, though in time I'm sure |
|
I'll grow to know |
|
Another's eyes, another's laugh and skin and bones |
