Matthew Sweet - Watch You Walking lyrics

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' they'd 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
