lyrics

YOU TOOK THE SHOES UNDER YOUR BED, BABY
AND WEAR YOUR GUILTY AND SHAME
WALKING ON FOOTSTEPS OVER GLASS, MAYBE
YOU ARE THE LIGHT I MUST STARE
THROUGH THE NIGHTS WE STILL CRUMBLING DOWN, BABY
ARE WE HAVING FUN YET?

I DO REMEMBER I SAID
ALL THAT I WANTED WAS YOU

WHITE WALLS TELL ME NOTHING NOWDAYS
THE DROWN WINE MADE THE STAIN
I APOLOGIZE MY UNSTOPPABLE VOICE
ALL WAY DOWN TO YOUR FEET
I CAN'T STAND YOUR PRETTY EYES DOWN, SORRY
IF I’M LOSING THE PLOT

BUT I'LL ALWAYS REMEMBER I SAID
ALL THAT I WANTED WAS YOU

"ISN'T SHE LOVELY?", ASK THE DRUNK, "SHE LOOKS LIKE THELMA"
ONCE YOU GET AWAKE YOU CAN'T SLEEP NO MORE
HER EYES ARE SHINING LIKE A CHILD PLAYING HIDE AND SEEK
EVEN WHEN ALL AROUND IS DEEP IN THE DARK

"PLEASE, QUIET, I’M TRYING TO DANCE!"
"CAN YOU STAND HERE WITH ME WHILE I BEG YOU PARDON FOR BEING...
SUCH A BORING OLD MAN"

BUT I DO REMEMBER I SAID
ALL THAT I SAID THEN WAS TRUE
ALL THAT I WANTED WAS YOU

Sob a influência de Neil Young, Sebadoh, Slowdive, R.E.M. e Guided By Voices, o September usa como matéria-prima os acordes abertos, as mesas de bar e as cicatrizes das décadas na estrada. ... more
