Karaoké White Houses Vanessa Carlton

Crashed on the floor when I moved in

This little bungalow with some strange new friends

Stay up till late and I'm too thin

We promised each other it's 'til the end

Now we're spinning empty bottles just 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

'Cos when she dances she goes and goes

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

Well 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 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 the 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
