James An - A Streetcar Named Desire

Copied!

{Verse 1}
Just around the corner, just a few doors
Down the street, but babe, what you lookin' for
Can't just blame the times that came just before
Window shoppin' dreams, no buyer's remorse
Money goes places, as usual
Everything fifty percent illusion
Dim light with some Blue Piano music
Yeah, I might find the truth amusing

{Chorus}
On a streetcar named desire
Swerving through your block windows down, bending corners
I never was a very good driver
Imagine all the things you could feel doing donuts
Pearls before swine don't throw away
Unforgivable things, no way
Let me look at you, but don't you look at me
Let me look at you, but don't you look at me

{Verse 2}
He never met a woman that didn't know
If she was beautiful without being told
It's like their life depended on a TV show
And if you don't know now, you know
Now calculate our depreciation
Be sure to say something nice about her appearance
Shallow recognition, deep appreciation
Depending on the kindness of strangers

{Chorus}
On a streetcar named desire
Swerving through your block windows down, bending corners
I never was a very good driver
Imagine all the things you could feel doing donuts
Pearls before swine don't throw away
Unforgivable things, no way
Let me look at you, but don't you look at me
Let me look at you, but don't you look at me

{Bridge}
I can't even break your car
But I can drive you to lunacy
And when I'm back
Put my gold dress on 'cause I'm bad
I only miss you when I'm poor
Sorrow makes for sincerity
But I won't tell you

{Chorus}
On a streetcar named desire
I never was a very good liar
Imagine all the things I could do if I was younger
