"Cherry Lane" Lyrics

Every night I read this novel
About two wooden roses and the pouring rain
But the engine's torn up
Tryin' to hail a cab
Think no one can read you; but i can

Well we move into a house down on cherry lane
Watch the world go by
Well I'm missing a page

I wanna be the one who walks you home
Who walks you home tonight
Stare into her eyes and try to explain
It's written in old english that was meant to fuck you up

Well I can never get close enough
But I'd loved

But I lie down on her pillow
And you feel like you was goin' away
Goin' away
And when you go no place to go
But back in her arms, lying in her pillow

Girl that put the book down on cherry lane
The glass that hits the floor and you're walkin' away

But I wanna be the one who walks you home
Who walks you home tonight
Stare into her eyes and try to explain
And tryin' to explain anyway

But i wanna be the one who walks you home
Who walks you home tonight
And stare into her eyes and try to explain
And tryin' to explain but the shit just fucks you up

And I can never get close enough
I can never get close
I can never get close enough
I can never get close enough
To you

I can never get close enough
I can never get close
I can never get close enough
I can never get close enough
To you

I can never get close enough
I can never get close
I can never get close enough
I can never get close enough
To you

I can never get close enough
I can never get close
I can never get close enough
I can never get close enough
To you

I could never get close
I could never get close enough
I could never get close enough
To you

I could never get close
I could never get close enough
I could never get close enough
To you
To you
To you
To you
