White Houses (Live)

White Houses (白房子) (Live) - Vanessa Carlton (瓦妮莎·卡尔顿)

Written by：Carlton Vanessa/Jenkins Stephan

Crashed on the floor when I moved in

This little bungalow alone with some strange new friends

Stay up too late and I'm too thin

We promise each other it's til the end

Now we're spinning empty bottles

It's the five of us

With pretty eyed boys girls die to trust

I can't resist the day

No I can't resist the day

Jenny screams out and it's no pose

Cause when she dances she goes and goes

And beer through the nose on an inside joke

And I'm so excited I haven't spoken

And she's so pretty and she's so sure

Maybe I'm more clever than a girl like her

The summer's all in bloom

The summer is ending soon

It's alright and it's nice not to be so alone

But I hold on to your secrets in white houses

Maybe I'm a little bit over my head

I come undone at the things he said

And he's so funny in his bright red shirt

We were all in love and we all got hurt

I sneak into his car's cracked leather seat

The smell of gasoline in the summer heat

Boy we're going way too fast

It's all too sweet to last

It's alright

And I put myself in his hands

But I hold on to your secrets in white houses

Love or something ignites in my veins

And I pray it never fades in white houses

My first time hard to explain

Rush of blood oh and a little bit of pain

On a cloudy day it's more common than you think

He's my first mistake

Maybe you were all faster than me

We gave each other up so easily

These silly little wounds will never mend

I feel so far from where I've been

So I go and I will not be back here again

I'm gone as the day is fading on white houses

I lie put my injuries all in the dust

In my heart is the five of us

In white houses

And you maybe you'll remember me

What I gave is yours to keep

In white houses

In white houses

In white houses
