In the Buildings Lyrics by Rorey Carroll

Love Is An Outlaw

0

[Verse 1]
I was wearing a Judas Priest t-shirt
You looked at me in the eye
You said you'd never seen a color like that
In this life
I didn't know what to tell you
So I gently looked away
And traced the outline of the clouds
The sky was blue and gray
[Chorus]
And you painted me the picture
That was sittin' in your head
How the grass was green, the breeze was light
The leaves were turning red
And you wanted to go somewhere
The city was too big
So we found the small things in the buildings
Pretending [there/that?] we did
[Verse 2]
When we walked into the alley
There was a busted-ass TV
And the glass that scattered all around
Was beautiful to me
'Cause nothin' is worth a battle
When your hand sits in mine
You've got a way about you
That makes me feel like I've already won the fight
[Chorus]
When you painted me the picture
That was sittin' in your head
How the grass was green, the breeze was light
The leaves were turning red
And you wanted to go somewhere
The city was too big
So we found the small things in the buildings
Pretending [there/that?] we did
