Lyrics

[Intro] Thank you Thank you very much ladies and gentleman This song is by the greatest band in the world, Beat Happening And it features on the drums, from Van Nuys, California, Ms. Jenny Lewis [Verse 1] I was walking in our town I was walking through the store I saw a pretty girl She held open the door I said, "I like you" She said that she liked me And we could be friends In our special, stupid way [Verse 2] I went to Pacific Cafe There she was again So I said, "Hey We should go swimming in Capital Lake" We had a lot of fun But then it got real latе So I walked her home And had dinnеr with her family [Chorus] That's why we're running away That's why we're running away That's why we're running away That's why we're running away That's why we're running away That's why I had dinner with her family [Verse 2] We went to her friend's house To have a cup of tea She said that it was true She was in love with me I knew right then We'd have to be alone Because no one in this whole world Could ever understand [Chorus] That's why we're running away That's why we're running away That's why we're running away That's why we're running away That's why we're running away That's why I had dinner with her family [Outro] That's why we're running away Thank you very much everybody Uh, here's a song about the city that I live in A city called Seattle, Washington
