Mew - Beach Lyrics

I was on my way, I swear
But I took a wrong turn there
For I zigged when I should have zagged

It's a somber turn out tonight
Chemistry class try to do our part
Something happened in the dark
We bought raincoats and pretty charms

And they did remember this time to keep it inside
Now we keep the water still
On the broken window sill
For if not we have to move

It is green outside where it seems magical
And if nothing works, we'll do nothing
I hope we're on time

And we shouldn't look at the sky
The perilous light, we were not allowed outside
And no one could tell us why

I got worried with shaky hands
So we said the words that we kept
For worrying times

I was on my way, I swear
But I lost my way somewhere
And the trees were glistening

From the silver trickling water
When the rain returns
We had our suspicions
Thinking what my heart confirmed

It is sweet outside where it seems magical
And if nothing works, we'll do nothing
Save yourself tonight, asleep in the dark
I hope we're on time
