Vanessa Carlton - White Houses Lyrics
Crashed on the floor when i moved inThis little bungalow with some strange new friendsStayed up too late, and I'm too thinWe promise each other it's till the endNow we're spinning empty bottles, it's the fives of usWith pretty-eyed boys girls die to trustI can't resist the day oh no i can't resist the dayAnd Jenny screams out and it's no pose'Cause when she dances she goes and goesBeer through the nose on an inside jokeAnd I'm so excited I haven't spokenAnd she's so pretty and she's so sureMaybe I'm more clever than a girl like herThe summer's all in bloomThe summer's ending soonIt's all rightAnd it's nice not to be so aloneBut I hold on to secrets in white housesMaybe I'm a little bit over my headI come undone at the things he saidHe's so funny in his bright red shirtwe were all in love and we all got hurtI sneak into his car's cracked leather seatThe smell of gasoline in the summer heatBoy we're going way too fastIt's all too sweet to last...It's alright and i put myself in his handsbut i hold on to secrets in White HousesLove or something ignites in my veinsand i pray it never fades in white housesMy first timeHard to explainRush of blood, ohAnd a little bit of painOn a cloudy dayIt's more common than you thinkHe's my first mistakeMaybe you were all faster than meWe gave each other up so easilyThese silly little wounds will never mendI feel so far from where I've beenSo I go and I will not be back here againI'm gone as the day is fading on white housesI lie, put my injuries all in the dustIn my heart is the 5 of us in white housesAnd you, maybe you'll remember meWhat I gave is yours to keepIn white housesIn white housesIn white houses.
