lirik lagu the smith street band - calgary girls
[verse 1]
in dark corners and bars and ballrooms
boys get childish and grow up too soon
i sit and stare at the calgary girls
pretty hair and their mummy’s pearls
until the fear wells up and hits me
send letters to a comfortable history
i used to have it all
now my head falls hard and alone onto a motel pillow
[chorus]
and i know there’s a script that i could rehe-rs-
and there are lines, i could make them work
but i don’t want them, i want you
and it’s not like there’s a sp-ce that i need to fill
or like i have any time we could k!ll
but i don’t need this, i need you
and this is the exact thing that i always do
[verse 2]
we used to lie right here and speak
we were f-cking great between these sheets
that she bought to replace the old ones she left when she needed her own sp-ce
and i took the hand-me-downs
and i flipped the covers inside out
and i’ll pretend that i’m different now
and the first time we made love
it was dark and we were drunk
in someone else’s, someone else’s hostel bathroom
and you turned your back to me
and i said, “if this is the first of many
then turn back around so i can f-cking kiss you”
[chorus]
and i know there’s a script that i could rehe-rs-
and there are lines, i could make them work
but i don’t want them, i want you
and it’s not like there’s a sp-ce that i need to fill
or like i have any time we could k!ll
but i don’t need this, i need you
and this is the exact thing that i always do
[bridge]
if you see me again holding up some dive bar’s end
with a whisky sat far too naturally between my legs
will you saunter over smokily and tell me about your family?
and i’ll tell you you were right when you said i’d end up lonely
and i’ll tell you that my life didn’t crack up to what our life would have been
and i’ll stand up to say something, fall straight back in my seat
and you will check your watch and say, “it’s probably time for you to leave”
and i’ll stand up and say something brave and grand, fall straight back in my seat
you will check your watch and say, “it’s probably time for you to leave”
and you will offer me a ride
only ’cause so it’s so f-cking cold outside
you were always far too kind
[chorus]
and i know there’s a script that i could rehe-rs-
and there are lines and i could make them work
but i don’t want them, i want you
and it’s not like there’s a sp-ce that i need to fill
or like i have any time we could k!ll
but i don’t need this, f-cking need you
and this is the exact thing that i always do
