Main Street

Late Night Alumni · Other Songs - Late Night Alumni

Self-assured with a cold heart.

I was sure the words had failed us.

So roundabout, I take the curtains down,

Sweep beneath chairs,

The unanswered prayers.

Now I'm haunted by a longing

So early in the morning.

It greets me without warning.

Coincidence. I see you today,

We small talk but time gets in the way,

So I clip the clock's wings,

We talk about smart things.

Find myself smiling

For the first time in days.

Now I'm haunted by a longing,

This afternoon on main street.

You're smiling and oh, how apropos.

I once had an ending but now I have the go.

I laugh when you say

"Flowers say what they mean",

Cause roundabout,

You say the funniest things.

Now I'm haunted by a longing

So late in the evening.

It greets me with a warning.
