I Saw You In The Crowd Lyrics - New Times - Violent Femmes

I saw you in the crowd 

I saw you singing out loud 

The people were swaying 

The band was playing 

Something real loud 

I couldn't hear one word 

Screams were all that I heard 

But I saw her face 

I saw her eyes 

I saw His grace 

In the darkening skies 

I saw you raise your hand 

Stretching out to the band 

You reach exceeding your grasp 

On the beach from the whale 

Comes one last gasp 

Meet me in my hotel room 

Meet me just for fun 

And I will not be boring 

Some things I been storing 

Inside to show someone like you 

A few friends just stopped by 

I think they wanted to get high 

But it wasn't you 

Who they led me to 

So I bid them all good-bye 

I probably would forget 

This episode of regret 

So I wrote this song 

So when you sing along 

I hope my message you will get 

Meet me in my hotel room 

Oh, meet me just for fun 

And you will not be boring 

Something you been storing 

Inside to show someone like me
