paroles de chanson I Wish I Knew Better - Owen Danoff

Lost in SoHo, flying solo
Watching window lights go out
Dreaming dreams of feeling whole
Over the barroom shouts
Wish this gloom was temporary
Wish a friend was here
Wish I weren't so ordinary
My ordinary fear
This time tomorrow, I'll be away
On the long roads that lie from NY to
LA
Chasing a lover that I can't get to
Stay
And I wish I knew better than that
Moves like water, rushes closer
Just to draw back like the tide
She's everything you could ever
Hope for
When she's on your side
But if she feels it's less than perfect
She will soon be gone
She don't see how something worth
It
Can be worth working on
But this time tomorrow, I'll be away
On the long roads that lie from NY to
LA
Chasing a lover that I can't get to
Stay
And I wish I knew better than that
I wish I knew better, and I do, in my
Head
But my head ain't what brings me to
Jump from my bed
At the sight of a shadow the shape of
Her hand on the walls of my room
Or the ghost of the smell of perfume
Deep in memory, packed for travel
Maybe this I won't regret
Feeling all my plans unravel
The closer that I get
This time tomorrow, I'll be away
On the long roads that lie from NY to
LA
Chasing a lover that I can't get to
Stay
And I wish I knew better, I wish I
Knew better
This time tomorrow, I'll be so far
From the memories we made
Between people and cars
But people don't change; they just
Change where they are
And I wish I knew better than that
I wish I knew better than that
