Argentina (Parts I, II, III)

Oh, what a girl

I wish you had another sister

For me

I’d take her to the park

While you were at work

How many kinds of people do you think there really are

For me?

Enough to fill a room

Enough to fill a mall

One sunset falls on the sea

You are not crying

Oh, what a girl

I wish we had a conversation

Face to face

Cuz when you speak

You speak in waves

But then you go into your secret place and hide

From me?

I wanna look in all the dark, dark, dark, dark, dark, dark, dark, dark comers

One season you wait and see

You are not crying

One lover turns into me

You are not crying

For me

Oh, Argentina

Born in 1988

Give or take

We share bottles

We share gum

When you smile

You smile with all your teeth at once

Oh, what a girl I want you wearing my t-shirt

Xl

Yeah, you wear it well

How many kinds of people do you think there really are

For me?

I want to see you in the bright, bright, bright, bright, bright, bright, bright, bright morning

One sunset pink on the sea

You are not crying

One lover turns into me

You are not crying

For me

Oh, Argentina

Born in 1988

Give or take a year or month a wedding day

We share bottles

We share gum

When you smile

You smile with all your teeth at once

And when you smile with all your teeth

Yeah, I’m done

And when you smile with all your teeth

Yeah, I’m done

I don’t want to want you like I want you

I don’t want to want you like I want you

I don’t want to want you like I want you

I don’t want to want you like I want you

I don’t want to want you like I want you

Television wakes me up

With the sound of a gun

Feeling like I’m here alone

But I’m not the only one

You were lying next to me

Wearing someone else’s clothes

Have I been asleep for long

In the informercial glow

Now I see the things that I have done

Everything in focus all at once

When I was an infant

I could see it clear

When I was a lover

I could see it clear

And yeah

I could be a fool

Sometimes

But I was a lover

And I could see it clear

‘Cause if I had known

That you were

Only here for the weekend

‘Cause if I had only known

What you were thinking

I would have been

So, so, so, so

Much nicer

So, so, so, so

Much nicer

If I was a lighthouse

I would look all

Over the place

If I was an asshole

Thank you for keeping

A smile on your face

And yeah

I could be a fool

Most of the time

But I was a lover

And I could see it clear

‘Cause if I had known

That you were

Only here for the weekend

‘Cause if I had only known

What you were thinking

I would have been

So, so, so, so

Much nicer

So, so, so, so

Much nicer

Yeah

I can see it

I can see it

Clear

I can see it

Clear
