Crowds push and shove down the street in a bus fume haze
Building for a new day
Will become of you and me
Our love
I want to shout from the roof "No these things they just don't do
Will they wait for me and you
Or just leave us both behind
I don't know"
She said, "Man I don't want to play around with words,
I just want to lay with you.
I can't solve the problems in this world
It's breaking my brain in two."
Hey baby don't you know
Our dreams they are the same
We're waiting on you
Don't want you for your time
They promise you a lie
Say it isn't true
Lately I can tell that you're scared
Well, we're growing up
Said Maybe if you changed your hair
You'd be good enough for
Kids I used to know that died
Now they're not around
I wonder what they think of life
When they're looking down
Want to walk to your door
So I head from the store
And I ring on your bell
Cause I see that you are home
and I wait for a while
And I look up to the sky
But nobody comes
Back on my feet
I went straight to the place
Where we were when you said
All the words that you meant
For me then
Do you still mean them now?
Well I can't see how you do
But I hope that it's so
She said, "Well right now you and I we're getting high,
But it don't have to be this way.
Baby I don't want to say goodbye,
But it's all that I aim to say."
Hey baby don't you know
Our dreams they are the same
We're waiting on you
Don't want you for your time
They promised you a lie
I say it isn't true
Lately I can tell that you're scared
Well, we're growing up
Said Maybe if you changed your hair
You'd be good enough for
Kids I used to know that died
Now they're not around
I wonder what they think of life
When they're looking down
