Alternate Routes |
|
Well its five at night |
|
and im over you |
|
i wanna |
|
do whatever this empty bottle tells me to |
|
and im so excited |
|
that i feel no pain |
|
and finally everythings right in place |
|
with my heart again |
|
and on the winds i can see |
|
that its nothing but the summer in me |
|
so hey la dee day |
|
i come out tonight |
|
i love to get lost in the |
|
black and the white |
|
put the colors in me |
|
remembering when |
|
i start looking over my shoulder again |
|
im over your shoulder |
|
and its a holiday weekend |
|
only twelve twentyfive |
|
i walk down to this neighborhood place |
|
and im feelin alive |
|
and its trapped in the alley |
|
and the lighting is fair |
|
bartenders laughing with strangers |
|
i reach from the wall and i pull up a chair |
|
singing luck be a lady |
|
this is where i belong |
|
and i know that your somewhere |
|
singing along |
|
sing hey la dee day |
|
i come out tonight |
|
i love to get lost in the |
|
black and the white |
|
put the colors in me |
|
remembering when |
|
i start looking over my shoulder again |
|
cuz im over your shoulder |
|
(piano solo) |
|
there once was a dozen |
|
now theres only a few |
|
its just past one thirty |
|
and im over you |
|
there in across town shadows |
|
i steal away |
|
and let the gin shot of whiskey |
|
take a good man back to his yesterdays |
|
and it starts me on thinking |
|
that you shoula stayed |
|
and i think about sleeping |
|
tonight in the bed that you made |
|
sing hey la dee day |
|
i come out tonight |
|
i love to get lost in the |
|
black and the white |
|
put the colors in me |
|
remembering when |
|
i start looking over my shoulder again |
|
im over your shoulder |
|
