THE WONDER YEARS LYRICS

"It's (Sort Of) A Pleasure To Meet You"

Music originally by Motion City Soundtrack
Lyrics by Dan Campbell

Box Cars. Carnanations.
Wishing you pure love and good luck.
You're a bird in a train station,
angry about where you ended up.
You're a glacier in my midwest.
You shaped me when you turned and tried to run,
but I learned,
oh, I caught up
and I'm trusting anyone.

Where were you when when we needed you?
Where were you when when we needed you?
Was it lip service? Just some shit you said?
Did you mean a word? You left me for dead.
Where were you when when we needed you?

I found out that love's tidal.
We washed out mornings beat the sun.
I was a truss. I held the pier up.
Salt air turned my tough skin into rust
You saw from the log flume, me snapping.
Crashed into the flood.
and I let, let you all down.
You can't trust me anyone.

Where were you when when we needed you?
Where were you when when we needed you?
Was it lip service? Just some shit you said?
Did you mean a word? You left me for dead.
Where were you when when we needed you?

Maybe Heaven, Heaven's a parking lot.
Maybe Hell is me waiting for you out on your front lawn
and maybe it's pointless because maybe we're stuck here where we are.

Where were you when when we needed you?
Where were you when when we needed you?
Was it lip service? Just some shit you said?
Did you mean a word? You left me for dead.
Now, I'm laying here my girlfriend's bed
trying not to crack under the weight of it.
Where were you when when we needed you?
Where were you when when we needed you?
