Same Direction - The Streets, Jimothy Lacoste

See me, I like to go my own way

We both say goodbye but then walk in the same direction

If she can’t move on, that’s her problem

I’m good, that’s her delay

We both say goodbye but then walk in the same direction

Like owls in the night we’re up so late

A sympathy fiddle plays for love that’s wasted

Now is the time for a good idea

In the middle of the night when no one’s up to take it

Two wavy ones getting done damage

Soleil was her name like the sun in Paris

The L was silent, the only thing about her that was

From sundown till lunch

I wink, I was joking if she snubs me

I take it slowly, she wears it hell

She’s lit up smoking in the club

But she drives too fast to care about her health

She only listens to crud or house

I’m only ever in the club or house

Cigarettes she gave up just for loud

I only wanna make

See me I like to go my own way

We both say goodbye but then walk in the same direction

If she can’t move on that’s her problem

I’m good, that’s her delay

We both say goodbye but then walk in the same direction

You lean it to the car window

Tell me the stars are getting off

The sky moves back like tinted windows

Revealing tomorrow like a deathly cough

I tell no lies, it’s easy to remember

Pocket the keys from in my lap

One too many blue lights flick on the dash

Glow from electronic highs

Smoke floats out and disappears

You jump in the driving seat, make for the stick

No joke now, we are on to our fears

Bump up the song, hit the mirror on the door

Make for a kiss and fatally floor it

See me I like to go my own way

We both say goodbye but then walk in the same direction

If she can’t move on that’s her problem

I’m good, that’s her delay

We both say goodbye but then walk in the same direction

But we’re now walking the same direction so girl please leave me

Please leave me, please leave me

Leave me, leave me

Please leave me, please move on

Please leave me and carry on

Please leave me, don’t be weird

Please leave me, you’ve just flopped

Please leave me, you’re now dropped

Please leave me, I need time

Please leave me, you’re in slime

Please leave me with my music

We both say goodbye but then walk in the same direction

We both say goodbye but then walk in the same direction

I never rate any gathering till the people have all settled

To talk on the weather in the wet is a downer on the day

We could debate this all afternoon and we would still not settle it

But that is much better than us settling it without debating at all
