BULLETPROOF WEEKS



Somewhere in between
The beginning and the end
September took the tourist
And settled in for good

We could hear the trains again
Brooklyn girls in scarves
Summer left and no one said a word

We'd open your window
And stay in your bed
All day 'til the street lights came on

So what happened to bulletproof weeks in your arms
What happened to feelin' cheap radio songs
What happened to thinking the world was flat
Yeah, what happened?

So up on 59th street
Right before the rain
Lovers catching taxis going downtown

I'm talking to what's left of you
And watching what I say
Counting all the freckles on your perfect face

You open your window
And sit on your bed
Just waiting for right words to come

So what happened to bulletproof weeks in your arms
What happened to feelin' cheap radio songs
What happened to thinking the world was flat
What happened
Yeah what happened to that?

Was I wrong?
Was I wrong?

So what happened to bullet proof weeks in your arms
What happened to feelin' cheap radio songs
What happened to thinking the world was flat
What happened
Yeah, what happened to that?
