La Mancha Screw Job

La Mancha Screw Job
I've been alone
So many times before
Times a-wastin'
Times a-wastin'
Singing songs
Behind a bolted door
Times a-wastin'
Times a-wastin'
And now the clock keeps ticking on
It's like my own private time zone
But then you came along
And now we're famous

You and I
We do it right
Hanging out on a summer night
We've come so far
We shine so bright
Hanging out on a summer night
We're getting stronger, stronger
Going faster, faster
You and I
We do it right
Hanging out on a summer night, yeah
I screwed it up
So many times before
I'm like a hoodlum
Like a hoodlum
But when you're near
I wanna stop the war
And be a porch bum
Be a porch bum
I guess I want to apologize
As I looked you in the eyes
We'll break through to the other side
And that's a promise
You and I
We do it right
Hanging out on a summer night
We've come so far
We shine so bright
Hanging out on a summer night
We're getting stronger, stronger
Going faster, faster
You and I
We do it right
Hanging out on a summer night, yeah

I love life with you, with you
I love life with you, with you
I'm not any wiser
Since the day I met you
And I love life with you, with you
You and I
We do it right
Hanging out on a summer night
We've come so far
We shine so bright
Hanging out on a summer night
We're getting stronger, stronger
Going faster, faster
You and I
We do it right
Hanging out on a summer night, yeah
