Khaki & Corduroy Lyrics - At The Bbc: On-air Performances & Recordings 2000-2005 - Laura Cantrell

Khaki & corduroy, leather jackets on the boys 

Denim with a worn out place on the pocket 

Open faces with knowing looks 

Your heavy satchel full of books 

Smiles tucked away in mamas lockets 

Sometimes, I see their faces in the most unlikely places 

You play it straight most of the time 

But you're looking for the perfect crime 

Find your mark and make your move 

Nothing harmed and nothing proved 

One night spent on that cold tile floor 

Then you creep home guilty like before 

Learning how to break or bend 

Broken now but sure to bend 

Sometimes, I see their faces in the most unlikely places 

Late hours in the Spanish clubs 

With your arms around the one you love 

Find the beat slow and sweet 

Neon glow and dance floor heat 

Walk by that river in the dark midnight 

With that water reflecting in your eyes 

Wild currents pulling you away 

Standing still I have to stay 

Sometimes, I see their faces in the most unlikely places
