Lenina Crowne - Catcher Lyrics

Ten decisions ruined my life
While I was trying to get ahead
Potential was on my side
But couldn't get me out of bed
That's just how it goes
Tell me what you want to hear
I'll do my best to make it real
I haven't seen you in a year
But still remember how it feels
When you say my name
I want to tear all my clothes off
Have it out with you on the storefront
But you kept your kings in the back row
Tennyson thinks he knows losing
But Emily was there to stay
When is our second year reunion?
Maybe I'll call you up today
But if I hear your voice
I'll want to give you my dowry
Head downtown with three times my salary
Try to tempt you to pull them up now
Pull them up now
You are the only one
Wish I could call you up
But I know
I won't do it now
When you think of me
Just know that I did not choose this
Even smart girls make up excuses
Just keep your kings in the back row
