I can't fake it anymore. I'm tearing down these walls. Don't know why but it's more than a feeling. . I'm walking out the door. Ain't no sign at all. But I know that I'm not dreaming.
I saw you with somebody new. Brought back those memories of all we went through. It seems so crazy after this time. I still think about you. You're still on my mind.
Looking at you through the window. You're like a girl on the cover of style magazine. I try to be cool but you don't notice me there. I'm just another guy trying to get attention from you.
She came from London. She's wearing a Stones shirt. She's got a ticket to ride. She's got her tongue pierced. But said that it don't hurt. And now she's right by my side.
Puts on her black eyeshadow. Turns up the volume on her stereo. Yeah she's looking fine. Wishing she was mine. First she's heading to the boulevard. Crusin' up like a movie star.
It's just another day. I'm off to work. It's all the same. That's how its been. Getting use to this routine. . I hid the pain inside. Keep my mind occupied,.
My first grade teacher said that if I wanted to get ahead. I have to learn to pay attention. But I've never listened to a word she said. And I always wound up in detention.
Wandering around in the city. Nothing like my sweet hometown. Everybody seems so pretty. Trying to keep my feet on the ground. . And I just bought these brand new clothes.
I'm going to California. turn the corner turn the key. unlock the secret garden. and throw away the key. Don't care how long it takes me. don't care what I have to do.
