don't make me say it. what can i say without saying it all? things are about to change. take a deep breath. jump. you know. shut up about your insecurities and fix them and smile. i downloaded this song today in a round about path to finding it. i havent listened to it since i bought the tape in berkeley back when. and i remembered it when looking for songs with love in the title.. which it isnt.. but thats not the point. i had downloaded.. "i love you so much its killing us both" by jawbreaker.. which lead me to chesterfield kings. its just the perfect little song. plain and simple new love. Chesterfield Kings - Jawbreaker We stood in your room and laughed out loud. Suddenly the laughter died and we were caught in an eye to eye. We sat on the floor and did we sit close. I could smell your thoughts and thought. Do you want to touch a lot like me? Too scared to say a thing. I left your house and kicked myself. I put those feelings on a shelf to die. I guess I'm not a gambling type but think of what the two of us had lost. I needed some time to think it out. 7-Eleven parking lot. A toothless woman turned and stopped. I gave her a dime and a Chesterfield. She leaned down and kissed my cheek. I was scared but it felt sweet. Felt so sweet. She asked me if I had a name. I told her I was glued up on some chick. We sat and smoked against the wall. Drank a beer, felt the chill of fall. I took my car and drove it down the hill by your house. I drove so fast. The wind it couldn't cool me down, so I turned it around and came back up. You were waiting on your step, steam showing off your breath and water in your eyes. We pulled each other into one, parkas clinging on the lawn and kissed right there. Said all my chicks they smoke these things and handed you a Chesterfield King. Held your hand and watched TV and traced the little lines along your palm. |
