Watch You Walking — текст песни (Matthew Sweet)

Safe in the night

When people look but can not see

Pale in the light

That shines above onto the street



I watch you walkin on the other side

And I turn my head away in shame

Wishin theyd talk in the worthless--



Quaint and reserved

The house that knows you in detail

Slender and curved

You come down stairs to get your mail



I watch you walkin on the other side

And I feel my thinking rearrange

As slowly every thought will change



Summer has gone

October fled without a word

Winter is on

My conscience has remained uncured



I watch you walkin on the other side

And I rush my fingers through my hair

Telling myself that it is not fair



I watch you walkin on the other side

And I rush my fingers through my hair

Telling myself that it is not fair
