So, here's the lyrics for that really great album I was talking about in the Music Forum. You guys probably don't care, but I love this album, especially the lyrics. And they actually tell a decent story, so here goes...
1. For You To Notice...
I'm starting to fashion an idea in my head.
Where I would impress you, with every single word I said,
Would come out insightful, or brave, or smooth, or charming.
And you'd want to call me.
And I would be there every time you need me.
I'd be there every time.
But for now, I'll look, so longingly.
Wait on
For you to want me, for you to need me, for you to notice..me.
I'm starting to fashion an idea in my head.
2. So Impossible
So she says everyone's going to the party, wont you come
If I come with a friend, for your friend?
I'd be so pleased to see you, out of the classroom,
Wearing the smile that I'll bring you.
I was hoping to learn a few things...like..
Do you, do you like dishing the dirt on the whole class?
And talking the big smack? Or playing the fool?
Or wearing all of the latest fashions?
Or bucking the new trends, and wearing your old threads.
Or do you like coffee in the evenings?
These are a few things, that I'd like to know.
So I say, I've been scheduled to work, but I'll call in.
And my friend isn't busy, he'd be happy to join me.
And maybe my friend and your friend will hit if off.
Or maybe...we will.
I was hoping to learn a few things like...
Do you like dreaming of things so impossible?
Or only the practical, or ever the wild.
Or wading through all your bad bad days,
Just to end them with someone you care about?
Or do you like making out?
Or long drives, or brown eyes or guys that just don't, quite fit in?
Yeah do you like them?
So yes, I'll see you there.
3. Remember To Breathe
She fixes her lips. They always look perfect.
Never a smudged line. Never too much.
I try on my blue shirt.
She told me she liked it once.
She wonders what I'll wear.
She knows just what she'll wear.
She always wears blue.
So sneakers or flip flops? I'm starting to panic.
Wait.
Remember she asked you. Remember to breathe
And everything will be okay. Alright?
4. Hands Down
Breathe in for luck. Breathe in so deep.
This air is blessed, you share with me.
This night is wild, so calm and dull.
These hearts they race, from self control.
Your legs are smooth, as they graze mine.
We're doing fine. We're doing nothing at all.
My hopes are so high, that your kiss might kill me.
So won't you kill me? So I die happy.
My heart is yours, to fill or burst, to break or bury, or wear as jewelry.
Whichever you prefer.
The words are hushed, "let's not get busted."
Just lay entwined here, undiscovered.
Safe in here from all the stupid questions. "Hey did you get some?"
Man that is so dumb.
Stay quiet, stay near, stay close. They can't hear.
So we can get some.
My hopes are so high, that your kiss might kill me.
So won't you kill me? So I die happy.
My heart is yours, to fill or burst, to break or bury, or wear as jewelry.
Whichever you prefer.
Hands down this is the best day I can ever remember
Always remember the sound of the stereo.
The dim of the soft lights..the scent of your hair..that you twirled in your fingers.
And the time on the clock, when we realized, "Its so late!"
And this walk that we share together.
The streets were wet, and the gate was locked, so I jumped it...and let you in.
And you stood at the door, with your hands on my waist
And you kissed me like you meant it.
I knew...that you meant it.
That you meant it, that you meant it.
I knew...that you meant it.
That you meant it.
