Tekstovi: Matt Nathanson. Wait Up.
I recall your kisses and they tasted just like medicine
I put all the pieces back together in my head
It seems so obvious now how fragile a thing we had
Prechorus
And all the leaves were on the ground
That fall, the leaves were all around
And you fed me stories
And you polished up your bruises until they shined
It kind of made me wish that I had a bruise so fine
(Prechorus 2x)
I've watched you twice rebuild your life,
Why don't you wait up for me
I stumble, why don't you wait up for me
With your child's smile and your innocence
I'd buy you bows and ribbons, the prettiest bows and ribbons
I made you like a queen with all the gifts I'd given
(Prechorus)
(Chorus)
You're a debutante
And all you've got
Is a head full of someone else's thoughts
(Chorus)
I put all the pieces back together in my head
It seems so obvious now how fragile a thing we had
Prechorus
And all the leaves were on the ground
That fall, the leaves were all around
And you fed me stories
And you polished up your bruises until they shined
It kind of made me wish that I had a bruise so fine
(Prechorus 2x)
I've watched you twice rebuild your life,
Why don't you wait up for me
I stumble, why don't you wait up for me
With your child's smile and your innocence
I'd buy you bows and ribbons, the prettiest bows and ribbons
I made you like a queen with all the gifts I'd given
(Prechorus)
(Chorus)
You're a debutante
And all you've got
Is a head full of someone else's thoughts
(Chorus)
