Lyrics
Back In The Laneway
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.
The senseless emotion
It’s draining my world
Like swimming in notions
The dying of thirst
It’s so darn demanding
This feeling of words
When confessed to pure
To try and rehearse
And we just sing
Cause it’s not entirely fair, oh no
It’s not right
But it’s not entirely fair
But if I’m just a gesture
Then you’re just a lie
And I asked you if you meant it
And you said you thought you might
And I wanted to be with you
But for more than just one night
And I wanted to come over
And put things in your mind
Cause it’s not entirely fair
When I’m bound in receiving
That’s when I need it
Falls like murano glass on christmas day
Back in the laneway
Where all this started
You were the beater
And I was the (?)
But you can’t stop me now
Cause if I’m just a gesture
Then you’re just a lie
And I asked you if you meant it
And you said you thought you might
And I wanted to be with you
But for more than just one night
And I wanted to come over
And put things in your mind
And if I’m just a gesture
Then you’re just a lie
And I asked you if you meant it
And you said you thought you might
And I wanted to be with you
But for more than just one night
And I wanted to come over
And put things in your mind
