Tom Verlaine

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Looking back, I should have known All the nights that I spent in outer space If in fact I had said no What becomes of this? It's hard to say [Bridge] I'll feel better with the breeze on my back And I'll sleep better knowing it's in the past [Verse 2] Looking back, I should have known All the nights that I spent in outer space Cigarettes and old regrets piled in a stack Out in the back of my brain [Chorus] When you walk away Better be for good [Verse 3] I put my money on a horse Who won't be steered on any course or lane And if I ever see a dime You'd take that money to divide and separate [Chorus] When you walk away It better be for good [Bridge] I know you'll be there in the rain Glowing like the first night, telling me you've changed I know you'll be there in the rain Glowing like the first night, trying to explain [Chorus] That when you walk away It's gonna be for good You were my Tom Verlaine Just sitting on the hood
