Lyrics
Girl Vii
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.
I'll run to you now
From somewhere you won't find me.
A different place,
A different time.
Together that summer
We raised some hell, yeah
But I couldn't forget
You're a kiss and tell.
[repeated sarah sample:] carrie's got a boyfriend, carrie's got a boyfriend...

If I hadn't left you
Suppose we'd still be lovers,
There'd still be the fights
And I'd ladder my tights.
