Lyrics

It's a calculation I made a mistake on I never should have said it like I said it It'll come to me later like a space invader And I won't be able to get it out of my head What if I'd never written the letter I slipped in the sleeve of the record I gave you? What if I'd stayed on the C train to Lafayette? What if we'd never met? What if I'd only just done what you told me And never looked back? What if I'd only ducked away down the hallway And faded to black? It was too romantic It was sad and frantic A paperback book in a storm drain It could go number one if I copied anyone From a melody that I wish I had What if I'd never written the letter I slipped in the sleeve of the record I gave you? What if I'd stayed on the C train to Lafayette? What if we'd never met? What if I'd only just done what you told me And never looked back? What if I'd only ducked away down the hallway And faded to black? What if I'd never written the letter I slipped in the sleeve of the record I gave you? What if I'd stayed on the C train to Lafayette What if we'd never met? What if I'd only just done what you told me And never looked back? What if I'd only ducked away down the hallway And faded to black? It'll come to me later like a space invader I won't be able to get it out of my head Quarter after four in the morning My heart's software gore Quarter after four in the morning My heart's software gore Quarter after four in the morning My heart's software gore Quarter after four in the morning My heart's software gore Why'd I leave it like that? Why'd I leave it like that? Quarter after four in the morning My heart's software gore Quarter after four in the morning My heart's software gore Quarter after four in the morning My heart's software gore Quarter after four in the morning My heart's software gore Why'd I leave it like that? Why'd I leave it like that? Why'd I leave it like that? Why'd I leave it like that? Why'd I leave it like that? Why'd I leave it like that? Quarter after four in the morning My heart's software gore Quarter after four in the morning My heart's software gore Quarter after four in the morning My heart's software gore Why'd I leave it like that?
