MOTION CITY SOUNDTRACK - PROMENADE lyrics

rate me

You can't see me peering through my glasses

You've been staring much too long

She walked away she walked away

Try to think of a better way to ask you to the promenade

The first time I met you, falsetto sighs

and the fire flies on dusty shoes and injured knees,

you turned and walked away

Subtract the bottom, add fractions on sleepy afternoons,

take one and pass them backwards, caught

you turned and smiled away

You can't see me peering through my glasses

You've been staring much too long

She walked away, you walked away

Try to think of a better way to ask you to the promenade

Sharing driveways with ? fence and your rollerskates

Next doors neighbors, backseat drivers, driving friends forever

4 months and 6 years later stroll through the ends of an empty hall

Contact is question now that we belong to separate crowds

In the hallway after school, I tried to play it cool

And you fell behind your friends

Something made me move

But my movement was too late as I slipped and hit the floor

When you helped me to my feet

Your face made me believe

You can't see me peering through my glasses

You've been staring much too long

She walked away she walked away

Try to think of a better way to ask you to the promenade

In the hallway after school, I tried to play it cool

And you fell behind your friends

Something made me move

But my movements were all wrong

You turned and walked away

Now I find myself alone singing songs and writing blues

And as the coronation starts I see you at promenade

You can't see me peering through my glasses

You've been staring much too long

She walked away she walked away

Try to think of a better way to let you do the promenade
