lyrics
I’m watching TV and I know I shouldn’t be
Because it doesn’t compare to walking down your street
Hanging off a live wire, I can’t believe you don’t see me
And I know just how she feels
Cuz I know just what you do
Well, I know just how it feels
When you make it seem real
Now I’m in my room but I want to jump off the roof
I’m just waiting for a boy who’s gonna beg me not to do it
Oh, here he comes now, man
He’s gonna take my shaky hand, well I know he’s no
Peter Pan
But I really need him to be now
Cuz I know just how she feels
I know just what you do
Well I know just how it feels
When you make it seem real
Nothing will change, at least not as far as I can see
When you hold my hand you don’t always have to wrench
it out of me
You could just hold my hand and if you wanna run away
with me we can do that
Cuz I know just how it’d feel, man
I know exactly what I want to do
I know just how I want to feel and every time, God, you
made it so real
