ANOTHERUNAROUND

She said "your girlfriend isn't all that" Wears a smile under her baseball hat "I think you've settled, boy Won't be long till you find you're bored" I said "We'll see, maybe give it a year I've grown up now, whatever that means, and I've seen too much to let myself go astray" Just shook her head, took my hand and she said "Hey There's no forever after If you're bound to be an actor The time that you waste is Hard to replace so Just give me an inch and I'll take You to the the miracle mile" She's a bonfire on the beach Cuts through night with her light and heat "You'll get burned boy just let it be" I tell the mirror as I check my teeth Our eyes lock I feel my stomach drop Across the bar I hear her thoughts She's thinking "There's no forever after If you're bound to be an actor The time that you waste is Hard to replace so Just give me an inch and I'll take You to the miracle mile" Is this just anotherunaround Like all the ones before? If you don't put down roots you'll never grow, it's true Or so I've been told She said "I'm a strange taste on your mouth But I'm the thing you can't live without Why think forever after Just focus on my laughter I'll let you walk me back Over to my place It's just out the doorway Left on the miracle mile"
