Tom Verlaine Songtext
Looking back
I should have known all the nights that I spent out in space
If in fact I had said no, what becomes of this
It's hard to say and I'll feel better with the breeze on my back
And I'll sleep better, knowing it's in the past
Looking back
I should have known all the nights that I spent in outer space
Cigarettes and old regrets piled in a stack out in the back of my brain
I should have known all the nights that I spent out in space
If in fact I had said no, what becomes of this
It's hard to say and I'll feel better with the breeze on my back
And I'll sleep better, knowing it's in the past
Looking back
I should have known all the nights that I spent in outer space
Cigarettes and old regrets piled in a stack out in the back of my brain
When you walk away it better be for good
I put my money on a horse who won't be steered on any course or lane
And if I ever see a dime, you'd take that money to divide and separate
When you walk away, it better be for good
I know you'll be there in the rain glowing like the first night
Telling me you've changed
I know you'll be there in the rain glowing like the first night
Trying to explain that
When you walk away, it's gonna be for good
You were my Tom Verlaine, just sitting on the hood
Woo wah
I put my money on a horse who won't be steered on any course or lane
And if I ever see a dime, you'd take that money to divide and separate
When you walk away, it better be for good
I know you'll be there in the rain glowing like the first night
Telling me you've changed
I know you'll be there in the rain glowing like the first night
Trying to explain that
When you walk away, it's gonna be for good
You were my Tom Verlaine, just sitting on the hood
Woo wah
