talking songs and singing words

"talking songs and singing words"

guys & dolls our simple days are drying up,
nowhere to go in our nowhere towns
we'll break up and we'll break down, but no one listens to the sound
maybe this is wishful thinking, maybe we're just bound to keep sinking

nowhere to go in our nowhere towns
we end up living the songs and books we love
maybe this is wishful thinking, maybe we're just bound to keep sinking
"love will ruin your mind" mom said to me on the back porch

we end up living the songs and books we love
wishing on eye lashes & slipping each other the tongue
"love will ruin your mind" mom said to me on the back porch
maybe these are the last songs we should sing

wishing on eye lashes & slipping each other the tongue
condemned to take home the hearts we'll never keep
maybe these are the last songs we should sing
we're just tired of walking past girls & boys we used to love

condemned to take home the hearts we'll never keep
is this all the love we could ever reap?
we're just tired of walking past girls & boys we used to love
we keep hoping, keep dreaming, keep loving.
