Lyrics
If I Hang Around
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Your hair hangs down, covers your eyes
If I hang around should I sympathize?
Your hungry look, not said to despise
If I hang around should I sympathize?
And some day you're gonna think about it some more
You're gonna toss your head and remember what loving is for.
Cycle surrender detachment from what you can see
If I hang around should I make you think I would leave?
Paraffin pastel printings that you believe
If I hang around should I find future to leave?
And some day you're gonna think about it some more
You're gonna toss your head and remember what loving is for.
Super-insensitive reaching out for the sun
If I hang around should I say I've only begun?
Perceptive protection perceiving no wrong is meant done,
If I hang around should I say you're the only one?
Some day you're gonna think about it some more
You're gonna toss your head and remember what loving is for.
