Songtexte Flashbacks, Memories, and Dreams - The Virgins

You must be looking for a ride
It's solar raining when you get outside
See something sparkling oh come on
Your lack of decency really turn me on

And when you reason with yourself
You got to picture someone else

And she danced with the mirror sway
While the records played and the hours passed
And she gone to a matinée
No, she found a way like a breath of life

I'll take that cookie for my jar
Look for ... up on the bedroom floor
I'm feeling heavy, leather bound
Just like a siren, don't make a sound

And when you reason with yourself
You gotta picture someone else

Well she dreamed of the silver screen
But she's just a scream when she's on the run
You say way better you than me
But she's hard to see when the lights come on
She can dance with the shadow on
Like she's all alone as the hours ṗass
Should she stay for a night or so, but she's gotta go like a breath of life

But take it how you want it
Don't let it get away from you
No matter how you got it
It's never gonna stay with you
And anyway you squeeze it,
You know it's gonna be the same
Don't matter how you leave it
You're beaten at the game

Well she dreamed of the silver screen
But she's just a scream when she's on the run
You say way better you than me
But she's hard to see when the lights come on
She can dance with the shadow on
Like she's all alone as the hours pass
Should she stay for a night or so
But she's gotta go like a breath of life
