[St. Vincent - This Wave lyrics]
He's gonna burn up deep in Texas
I'll freeze alone in New York City
We made the best of a disaster
And I pull my jacket closer
I lit a candle for you in Rome
I did the same in Mexico
Oh, won't you tap me on the shoulder
When the scary scene is over?
I feel as guilty as Jiminy
And like a piggy headed Yankee
But, I did not see this wave coming
In time to wake you up
In time, in time to warn you of
In time, in time to pull you from it
I'll freeze alone in New York City
We made the best of a disaster
And I pull my jacket closer
I lit a candle for you in Rome
I did the same in Mexico
Oh, won't you tap me on the shoulder
When the scary scene is over?
I feel as guilty as Jiminy
And like a piggy headed Yankee
But, I did not see this wave coming
In time to wake you up
In time, in time to warn you of
In time, in time to pull you from it
