the alternate routes – the black and the white lyrics
well, it’s five of nine and i’m over you
i’m gonna do whatever this empty bottle tells me to
and i’m so excited that i feel no pain
finally everything’s right in place with my heart again
and there no ends i can’t see
there’s nothing but the summer in me
sing, hey la de day
i come out tonight
i look to get lost in the black and the white
put the colors in me
remembering when
i start looking over my shoulder again
over your shoulder
and it’s a holiday weekend, only twelve twenty-five
i walk down to this neighborhood place and i’m feeling alive
and it’s trapped in the alley and the lighting is fair
and the bartender’s laughing with strangers
i reach from the wall and i pull up a chair
singing “luck be a lady, this is where i belong”
and i know that you’re somewhere singing along
sing, hey la de day
i come out tonight
i look to get lost in the black and the white
put the colors in me
remembering when
i start looking over my shoulder again
over your shoulder
and there once was a dozen now there’s only a few
and it’s just past one thirty and i’m over you
and there in across town shadows i steal away
i let a gin shot of whiskey take a good man back to his yesterdays
and it starts me on thinking that you should have stayed
and i think about sleeping tonight in the bed that you made
sing, hey la de day
i come out tonight
i look to get lost in the black and the white
put the colors in me
remembering when
i start looking over my shoulder again
over your shoulder
