Franny Lyrics by Mad Planets

Music Makes Me Think of You

1999

[Chorus]
Hot on the heels of a breakdown
He wants me to call him Holden
I want to be Franny
Hot on the heels of a breakdown
He wants me to call him Holden
I want to be Franny

[Verse]
Dig my heels in the dance floor
But when I move, it's just too slow
I can cease to speak and swear to fade away
Take the oath for the length of another day
Dig my heels in the dance floor
But it just leaves me at the door
I batter books with my barren heart
The lost pursuit that I stop and start

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm alone, wandering alone
Heaven, help her now or she'll run away
Girl like that won't exist for another day

[Chorus]
Hot on the heels of a breakdown
He wants me to call him Holden
I want to be Franny
Hot on the heels of a breakdown
He wants me to come and hold him
I want to be Franny

[Refrain]
Walk right into the backroom
You've got a hip, new place to dwell
And you can try to stop yourself from dreaming
A hip, new way might be deceiving
Walk right into the backroom
I didn't jump too far, I fell
And you can try to stop yourself from dreaming
A hip, new way might be deceiving

[Pre-Chorus]
I must own up to some things
I move on in doomed velocity
The guess is right and it convinces me
I'm alone, wandering alone
Heaven, help her now or she'll run away
Girl like that won't exist for another day

[Refrain]
Walk right into the backroom
You've got a hip, new place to dwell
And you can try to stop yourself from dreaming
A hip, new way might be deceiving
Walk right into the backroom
I didn't jump too far, I fell
And you can try to stop yourself from dreaming
A hip, new way might be deceiving
