We arrived too late, our mouths were opening I turned off the light, so come on night You're a witness you, you've seen me interrupt A good old fashioned

Drink up baby, stay up up all night With the things you could do, you won't but you might The potential you'll be, that you'll never see The promises

I'm in love with the world through the eyes of a girl Who's still around the morning after We broke up a month ago and I grew up, I didn't know I'd be

Pick me up in an hour or so I don't really recommend it, no They'll probably just put you down I believe you, I wanna be you I believe you, I wanna be

He waved hello silent like a mime We met, there's no changing my mind I won't walk the stairs with you tonight Going nowhere The clock moved a quarter

Go on parade and fade Hit the scene in slow Spending all your time with some girl You'll never get to know Wound up tight Dressed all in white Some torment

Coma kid, tell me how you come to Follow you around where ever you go Said, ?I don't go where I'm supposed go And I don't go really anywhere, you know

The ghost of your smile is always looking For new bodies to haunt And it's been here and disappeared It's hanging around aloofly for a while Gradually

Almost forgot Started to say Rode into the sun Asked everyone Hallelujah Pretty Mary K I found faith in the infirmary There's a soldier lyin' in bed
