Pretty Little Girl

Blink-182

Nineteen your eyes are glowing into my beating heart
Oh it seems like it is fine as my hand is moving up your arm
And you never really know where it goes up until it starts
I’ve got my eye on you, whatca gonna do?

Day dream near a stream with a winter bite
Oh, I listen to the song on repeat from the other night
And I can’t picture you but I sure got the feelin right
What a crazy world, pretty little girl

And we wake from the night in a bed with a bruise
And we’re laughing out loud over the craziest news
When you reach for my hand I was scared in your room
We fell on the floor and we started to move
And your hands were like birds as they flew from the coop
Up my back they would climb just as I came unglued

She said if you break my heart then I’ll change your mind
And I’ll do it again
If you play the part then I will play mine
And I’ll do it again
If we miss the mark if we hold on tight
We’ll be there to try it again

Nineteen as we roll across the bedroom floor
Your eyes they came alight as you’re dreaming of our future home
And the kids are growing up as you and I we are growing old
What a crazy world, pretty little girl

In the rain with a drink from the back of the bar
I’m raising my voice, you raise it up more
We forget that our lives have been apart it is hard
We thought we are close but it still feels far
And we learn to get by if we learn to have scars
We learn to forgive and except who we are
 
You said if you break my heart then I’ll change your mind
And I’ll do it again
If you play the part then I will play mine
And I’ll do it again
If we miss the mark if we hold on tight
We’ll be there to do it again

Wait a minute hold up a second
Don’t leave me here with this feelin
Like I’m the one for regrettin
Like I never did coke for a spoke
Like I never did pulled out that weapon
And stick that knife through my back
Was I supposed to except it when your words are like
More than just sticks and stones kinda like a bullet
I don’t tip that lies in my bones and I can’t just swallow it
My pride is more than all that I own so I gotta give it away
Some of the times I’m all the way wrong but can’t you see past
Me and see my fucked up home that made me the meanest
The devil is just singin alone to the song I write to alone at night
And I hang up the phone and bite my tongue
Cause I know that me and you is just only right, but one…

It’s a cry from the past we have been through a lot
Every year has been great and a few have been tough
And the kids they will reach for the stars up above
I said relax we are sure in the night
All the ropes to the life from the crypt to the grave
We started alone in the end we’re ok

You said if you break my heart then I’ll change your mind
And I’ll do it again
If you play the part then I will play mine
And I’ll do it again
If we miss the mark if we hold on tight
We’ll be there to try it again
