Jimmy Lyrics by Vivienne Wilder

postromantic

2020

[Verse]
Jimmy I'm sorry, you're as good as they come
Me, I'm just a million in one
Remember when I met you the first time
And couldn't look you in the eye
Talking in the hallway, sitting on the floor
Stories 'bout the ones we'd been with before
Out on the street, your shoulder in the rain
You pulled me up as the pavement caved
[Chorus]
But when the empire won
And the drip formed a trickle
And the trickle formed a stream
You were the only one who wasn't washed away
Who held onto the cracks in the concrete
[Verse]
Leaning on the guardrail; bedroom eyes
Flirting with the cop as you jack his ride
The deep blue kaleidoscopic drives
Making crop circles you designed
Afternoons hiding in the carpark
Living off stolen chocolate bars
The sun set, you took me on the roof
If life's an art, baby, you're the proof
[Chorus]
'Cause when the empire won
And the drip formed a trickle
And the trickle formed a stream
You were the only one who wasn't washed away
Who held onto the cracks in the concrete
[Bridge]
Watch the sun go down across the lake
I can be strong, just not today
Today I'm feeling old and strange
But please, please, Jimmy don't you ever change
[Chorus]
'Cause when the empire won
And the drip formed a trickle
And the trickle formed a stream
You were the only one who wasn't washed away
Who held onto the cracks in the-
You were the only one
You were the only one
You were the only one who wasn't washed away
Who held onto the cracks in the concrete
[Outro]
Jimmy, I'm thinking I should get out of town
I won't be here next time you come around
I'll head back west; get a job
Maybe finally move on
