SLOAN lyrics : "waiting for slow songs"

When you and your cast of friends arrive

And the party reaches a new high


Don't you think it'll last too long


Before you know it baby

They break out into that song


That I know I've heard it once or twice


From where I just can't be precise




It's as if I've woken from


Even though it's irrelevant

But you write the saddest song


A confused and cloudy dream


Turn around and make it a singalong




The heart scratch melody




Means there's more than this for you and me


When you wait by the door, look for your ride


Where the shoes are piled up on the side

And the dancing's out of hand


Don't leave just 'cause they won't play your favourite band


And the night it goes on and on




And I'm waiting for slow songs


Replaced by bells, is that your ride?

But I block out most of the singing


You only just arrived








Could you write the saddest song


Means there's more than this for you and me


Turn around and make it a singalong

The heart scratch melody


Yeah


And the night it goes on and on




I'm through waiting for slow songs


I wish that I could write

But I block out most of the ringing

Replaced by thoughts unjustified




Turn around and make it a singalong


Could you write the saddest song

The heart scratch melody

Means there's more to this than you and me




If words could be combined


I'd write it out to boost my career

To describe your trademark look tonight

But you know that writing always takes me years
