later afterwork
So
She was a rich girl
Staring out a window
Like any other girl
Staring from a window
And so you can't forget your first love
What makes you different
He's a man in a office
Behind a desk
Staring at a girl
In an office
Behind a desk
Her long legs
He's not so different
The difference is he's you
And new rules apply
Your making eyes
And breathing in as she walks by
Forget the friends who let you down
Forget the promises of this dirty little town
And forget the doubts you have inside
Find yourself falling for some teenage suicide
Forget this girl who's barely twenty
She knows it all but her heart is empty
Forget the friends who let you down
And forget the promises of a dirty little town
Forget
Forget
Forget
This dirty little town
And it doesn't really matter
What you caught on film
And it doesn't really matter
What you caught on film
So
It's the morning
She's sitting outlined in the sunshine
The edge of the bed
She knows this shape is etched into my mind
Stays with me for a lifetime
So
She was a rich girl
(He was a rich man)
Staring out a window
(Falling from a window)
Like any other girl
(Like any other man)
Staring from a window
(Falling from a window)
So you can't forget your first love
What makes you different
You're not so different
Forget the friends who let you down
Forget the promises of this dirty little town
And forget the doubts you have inside
Find yourself falling for some teenage suicide
Forget this girl who's barely twenty
She knows it all but her heart is empty
Forget the friends who've let you down
And forget the promises of a dirty little town
Forget
Forget
This dirty little town
Cars pass
Ashes glow
We watch light chasing shadow
We watch light chasing shadow
We watch light chasing shadow
The difference is he's you
And new rules apply
