White houses by Vanessa carlton

Crashed on the floor when I moved in
this little bungalow with some strange new friends.
stay up to late and I'm to thin
we promised each other it's till the end
now we're spinning empty bottles
it's the five of us
with pretty eyed boys girls die to trust
I can't resist the day
no I can't resist the day

jenny screams out and it's no pose
cuz when she dances she goes and goes
beer through the nose on an inside joke
and I'm so excited I haven't spoke
and she's so pretty and she's so sure
maybe I'm more clever than a girl like her
summer's all in bloom
the summer's ending soon

it's alright, and it's nive not to be so alone
and I hold on to your secrets in white houses

Maybe I'm a little bit over my head
I come undone at the things he said
and he's so funny in his bright red shirt
we were all in love, and we all got hurt
I sneak into his cars cracked leather seat
the smell of gasoline in the summer heat
boy we're going way too fast
it's all too sweet to last

it's alright, and I put myself in his hands
and I hold on to your secrets in white houses
love, or something ignites in my veins
and I pray it never fades, in white houses

my first time, hard to explain
rush of blood, oh and a little bit of pain
on a cloudy day, it's more common than you think
he's my first mistake.

maybe you were all faster than me
we gave eachother up so easily
these silly little wounds will never mend
I feel so far from where I've been
so I go, and I will not be back here again
I'm gone as the day is fading on white houses
I lied, wrote myu injuries all in the dust,
in my heart it's the five of us
in white houses

and you, maybe you'll remember me
what I gave is yours to keep
in white houses
in white houses
in white houses
