Speeding Cars
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.
Here's the day you hoped would never come
Don't feed me violins
Just run with me through rows of speeding cars.
The papercuts the cheating lovers
The coffee's never strong enough
I know you think it's more than just bad luck
There there baby
It's just text book stuff
It's in the ABC of growing up
Now, now darling
Oh don't lose your head
'Cause none of us were angels
And you know I love you yeah
Sleeping pills know sleeping dogs lie
Never far enough away
Glistening in the cold sweat of guilt
I've watched you slowly winding down for years
You can't keep on like this...
Now's a bad a time as any
There there baby
It's just text book stuff
It's in the ABC of growing up
Now now darling
Oh, don't kill yourself
'Cause none of us were angels
And you know I love you yeah
It's ok by me.. (3X)
It was a long time ago
It's ok by me.. (3X)
It was a long time ago
There there baby
It's just text book stuff
It's in the ABC of growing up
Now now darling
Oh, don't lose your head
'Cause none of us were angels
And you know I love you yeah
There there baby
It's just text book stuff
It's in the ABC of growing up
Now now darling
Oh, don't kill yourself
'Cause none of us were angels
And you know I love you yeah
