Yo La Tengo - The Room Got Heavy lyrics
[Yo La Tengo - The Room Got Heavy lyrics]
The room got heavy with a lamppost looming
We were driving in a circle
Somewhere near the station
Shoot me near the bushes
My eyes aren't focused
And we passed one parsing through the tunnel
Palisades Park, summer after dark
Hand holding fast to a party invitation
And the room got heavy but only for a minute
While everyone was waiting for you
The room got heavy
All the concrete in the air
And the couple around the corner
At the yellow light blinking
She said "I wouldn't do that" but
We all know that she did
From the look on her face
Her arms slightly folded
And he headed for the door
Reach across the floor
Hands in my pocket, my eyes aren't focused
And the room got heavy but only for a minute
While everyone waited for you
We were driving in a circle
Somewhere near the station
Shoot me near the bushes
My eyes aren't focused
And we passed one parsing through the tunnel
Palisades Park, summer after dark
Hand holding fast to a party invitation
And the room got heavy but only for a minute
While everyone was waiting for you
The room got heavy
All the concrete in the air
And the couple around the corner
At the yellow light blinking
She said "I wouldn't do that" but
We all know that she did
From the look on her face
Her arms slightly folded
And he headed for the door
Reach across the floor
Hands in my pocket, my eyes aren't focused
And the room got heavy but only for a minute
While everyone waited for you
