You checked the mail and locked the door
You took the stairs downstairs from the third floor
You thought about her as you walked
Well did the sky open up above you in the dark
And what a note to leave with rent
Did you know what's coming or even half know it when you left
You set the tempo, set the pace
From the top, from the start, never slightly late
Just that afternoon we talked
Getting out, stepping out, let it out, something got caught
What about the time I heard you say
Were you only joking, or only half joking when you left
Chorus:
I get the feeling I've done
Something half wrong
It surrounds me and drowns me in it
If I could change it I would
If only I could
You can quote me and hold me to it
We dropped our records at the scene
Writing numbers on our hands, gotten that at least
Called the cops, called the car
Call a friend, call a relative still in the dark
Took the bridge in seconds flat
Call ahead to check in call ahead to ask them where they're at
Chorus (2X)
You can quote me and hold me
You can quote me (3X)
You can quote (2X)
You can hold me (3X)
You can hold can hold me
You checked the mail and locked the door You took the stairs downstairs from the third floor You thought about her as you walked Well did the sky open up above you in the dark
And what a note to leave with rent Did you know what's coming or even half know it when you left
You set the tempo, set the pace From the top, from the start, never slightly late Just that afternoon we talked Getting out, stepping out, let it out, something got caught
What about the time I heard you say Were you only joking, or only half joking when you left
Chorus:
I get the feeling I've done Something half wrong It surrounds me and drowns me in it If I could change it I would If only I could You can quote me and hold me to it
We dropped our records at the scene Writing numbers on our hands, gotten that at least Called the cops, called the car Call a friend, call a relative still in the dark
Took the bridge in seconds flat Call ahead to check in call ahead to ask them where they're at
Chorus (2X) You can quote me and hold me You can quote me (3X) You can quote (2X) You can hold me (3X) You can hold can hold me
