The Girls In Their Summer Dresses |
| It’s so quiet on these windswept days |
| The city lights, the golden rays |
| The sunlight on the subway tracks |
| Are you mad again? |
| If you like I’ll take it back |
| They’re just your feelings |
| I wasn’t looking at her ass |
| Oh, do you mean it? |
| It’s so lonesome, all this happenstance |
| If you asked me, yes, I’d like to dance |
| Just show me a glove-covered hand |
| A perfumed dress is more than I can stand |
| And you approach me |
| With your hollow hearted hand |
| And you tell me: |
| «It's not civilized, it’s not fair to me |
| The blues, the greys, the olive greens |
| All take you far away from me |
| The girls in their summer dresses see» |
| Though you don’t notice |
| They all look back at me |
| Is this on purpose? |
| Oh no, no, no |
| Oh no, no, no |
| Oh no, no, no |
| I offer you this one olive branch |
| It’s not as though they’re always so keen |
| And we’re both just the victims of circumstance |
| Do you understand, do you know what I mean? |
| Oh no, no, no |
| Oh no, no, no |
| Oh no, no, no |
| Oh no, no, no |
| I’m a husband first, I’m a childless curse |
| I’m a faithful man with a faceless thirst |
| I’ll stay with you, oh please don’t sigh |
| I try to explain, but you cry, and cry, and cry |
| And you hate me when I ask the reason why |
| You’ll trade me a dollar for some sense |
| But don’t blame me, I was only making sense |
| Oh I’m so sorry, I was only making sense |
