American Cliché

Song: American Cliché

Artist: FINNEAS

Lyrics: Finneas O'Connell

Too little to do for too long and

Too little of you for my songs

To be anything but lonely

In a couple weeks, you'll own me

Too tired to sleep, good morning

And I'm too wired to heed the warning

That there's danger in the summer

The calm before the thunder

I'm an American cliché

Missing a girl in a French café

I say, "Goddamn, you're beautiful"

You're blushing, duck out of frame

I'm an American cliché

Missing a girl in a French café

I say, "How'd I get along, so long without you"

And you say, "Same"

Graveyard, Jim Morrison, forever

In my arms, they'll have to bury us together

'Cause I'm never gonna let you go

Uh-oh, uh-oh

Missed my flight, making love in the morning

While everybody else was boarding

They love to say they told you so

I know, I know, I know

I'm an American cliché

Missing a girl in a French café

I say, "Goddamn, you're beautiful"

You're blushing, duck out of frame

I'm an American cliché

Missing a girl in a French café

I say, "How'd I get along, so long without you"

And you say, "Same"

Come on over now

You're one layover down

No one that we know around

Don't want the city without you

I want you

We'll go all over town

No one that we know around

Can't say I'm sober now

Do something I'm not allowed to

I want you

I'm an American cliché

Missing a girl in a French café

I say, "Goddamn, you're beautiful"

You're blushing, duck out of frame

I'm an American cliché

Missing a girl in a French café

I say, "How'd I get along, so long without you"

And you say, "Same"
