Lyrics Alberta - Fast Romantics

Alberta

After one gin and tonic, you were on your way
I remember calling down my hallway and convincing you to stay
But now ever since I left, you ain’t ever left me
How’d I ever leave a lover who could love me so sweetly?
Stayin' out all night in the city of goodbyes
My friend Tim could put tears in our eyes
Yeah he’d laugh so big about it all
Till the whole town cried
Alberta, Alberta
I know it won’t be hard to find yourself a new man
I remember cryin' out in mission
Bobby found me with his car
He took me out for a beer at the closing time bar
I said I didn’t wanna leave her, but I didn’t wanna stay
He said it doesn’t really matter and we laughed it all away
And Tim’s got me tearing up again
Him and me, we were such fast friends
Yeah we’d talk so big about our lives
Like they’d never end
Alberta, Alberta
I know it won’t be hard to find yourself a new man
I’ve seen the California sun and the New York street
I met the prettiest girl I think I’ll ever meet
You know, the sun in the east is shining bright on me
But I left three white crosses out on Calgary
Yeah, Tim’s got me tearing up again
I can live without you, but give me back my friend
We’d talk so much shit about our lives
Like they’d never end
Alberta
Alberta
Alberta
Alberta
