Instant Crush
Lyrics:
[English]
(light upbeat music)
♪ I didn't want to be the one to forget ♪
♪ I thought of everything I'd never regret ♪
♪ A little time with you is all that I get ♪
♪ That's all we need because it's all we can take ♪
♪ One thing I never see the same when you're 'round ♪
♪ I don't believe in him, his lips on the ground ♪
♪ I wanna take you to that place in the Roche ♪
♪ But no one gives us any time anymore ♪
♪ He asks me once if I'd look in on his dog ♪
♪ You made an offer for it, then you ran off ♪
♪ I got this picture of us kids in my head ♪
♪ And all I hear is the last thing that you said ♪
♪ Listened to your problems, now listen to mine ♪
♪ I didn't want to anymore, oh ♪
♪ And we will never be alone again ♪
♪ 'Cause it doesn't happen every day ♪
♪ Kinda counted on you being a friend ♪
♪ Can I give it up or give it away ♪
♪ Now I thought about what I wanna say ♪
♪ But I never really know where to go ♪
♪ So I chained myself to a friend ♪
♪ 'Cause I know it unlocks like a door ♪
♪ And we will never be alone again ♪
♪ 'Cause it doesn't happen every day ♪
♪ Kinda counted on you being a friend ♪
♪ Can I give it up or give it away ♪
♪ Now I thought about what I wanna say ♪
♪ But I never really know where to go ♪
♪ So I chained myself to a friend ♪
♪ Some more again ♪
♪ It didn't matter what they wanted to see ♪
♪ He thought he saw someone that looked just like me ♪
♪ The summer memory that just never dies ♪
♪ We worked too long and hard to give it no time ♪
♪ He sees right through me, it's so easy with lies ♪
♪ Cracks in the road that I would try and disguise ♪
♪ He runs the scissors at the seam in the wall ♪
♪ He cannot break it down or else he would fall ♪
♪ One thousand lonely stars ♪
♪ Hiding in the cold ♪
♪ Take it ♪
♪ I don't wanna sing anymore ♪
