Wallflowers - WITNESS lyrics

rate me

I'm standing outside your window, baby

And there you are

Another year, another candle's burning

for the party girl

No one even knows that you're there

Happy Birthday, no one cares

You come around here,

You'd better bring a witness

Everyone in here's on the guest list

And when you're gone you won't be missed

Keep one eye open

when you kiss

Your wishes won't be coming true this year

Now darling don't you cry

We're going to teach you everything

You'll learn to get by

Now lesson number one in homicide

is emotional murder is no crime

You come around here,

you'd better bring a witness

Everyone in here's on the guest list

And when you're gone you won't be missed

Keep one eye open

when you kiss

Now sticks and stones, baby, break your bones

But the names, in here, can kill

We'd let you leave

but no one else wants you

Your ransom was not made

Now you ain't got to stand up tall

But now baby, you must stand up

You come around here,

you'd better bring a witness

Everyone in here's on the guest list

Now we've never been so impressed

Keep one eye open when, whenever you kiss
