Watch You Walking Lyrics - Inside - Matthew Sweet

Safe in the night 

When people look but can not see 

Pale in the light 

That shines above onto the street 

I watch you walkin' on the other side 

And I turn my head away in shame 

Wishin' they'd talk in the worthless 

Quaint and reserved 

The house that knows you in detail 

Slender and curved 

You come down stairs to get your mail 

I watch you walkin' on the other side 

And I feel my thinking rearrange 

As slowly every thought will change 

Summer has gone 

October fled without a word 

Winter is on 

My conscience has remained uncured 

I watch you walkin' on the other side 

And I rush my fingers through my hair 

Telling myself that it is not fair 

I watch you walkin' on the other side 

And I rush my fingers through my hair 

Telling myself that it is not fair
