Текст песни
There's an old abandoned home
On Scripps Street near the dry cleaners
It was built in '64
With no A/C and a broken wall-heater
And he worked those postdoc days
18 hours, had to get 'em out of the way
Before the baby came
And would make her the happiest she'd be
In Del Mar every year
They built fairgrounds on the race track
And I'd go with Mom and Dad
Round to every stand till I outgrew that
And just fucked around with kids from school
Said they were my friends but we both know they didn't mean it
Oooo x2
I remember when I first knew
That she loved me, she loved me
We were at subway at 10 till 2
She covered my head with her cardigan
It's crazy to think back now
What with all I've been worried about
Like will I work till I'm dead
And is wonder just something we tell our kids?
Oooo x4
There's a temporary glow
That surrounds you, surrounds you
And melts away as you grow
As it all fades from your purview
