Lyrics About You - Jesse Malin

About You

We were the children who need those dreams the worst
We asked for God but all they had left was church
We took the high road and they brought us down
But we kept right on we were bound
Me and you go a long time too
We’ve been through hell and survived high school
We played the records and we played the fool
Paris to Holland on a supersonic electric train
So many women but somehow it’s all the same
Tell those Nazis that we’re doing fine
And put Chet Baker on the line
Me and you go a long time too
We’ve been through hell and kept goin' on through
I’d like to love you baby so taboo
But no one even knows and no one I have told
About you
The bottles are empty and I guess you could do the math
I never told you cause I figured you’d probably laugh
With your brown eyes sparkle
You’re waking in the midday sun
I once kissed a teller but I never played ring and run
Me and you go a long time too
We’ve been through hell and
Those stinkin' public schools
All your dreams may they all be true
And no one even knows
No one I have chose
No one even knows about you
