Television Light Lyrics - Marshall Crenshaw

Television light 

Shining through a hundred bedroom windows 

I was out last night 

Walking all around the streets that we know 

Tales to tell are behind every door 

No two are quite the same 

You and I know a few of our own 

That's for sure 

Days and days have gone 

But I still clearly can remember 

A crowded avenue 

On a Monday evening in November 

On our way to your old place downtown 

You held my hand tight 

There was light and laughter 

And music all around 

Oh, what I wouldn't wish for 

Nearly came true 

To throw your love away 

Was what I didn't wanna do 

It's written on my heart 

The way I feel for you 

To make your bitter tears fall 

Was what I didn't wanna 

What I didn't wanna do 

Television light 

Shining through a hundred bedroom windows 

I went out last night 

Walking all around the streets that we know 

Sometimes love will bring you down one day 

Then back up another day 

Make you right, make you wrong 

Make you do it anyway 

Oh, what I didn't wish for 

Nearly came true 

To throw your love away 

Was, what I didn't wanna do 

I truly realize now what I already knew 

To make your bitter tears fall 

Was what I didn't wanna do 

What I didn't wanna do 

Sometimes love will bring you down one day 

And back up another day 

Make you right, make you wrong 

Make you do it anyway 

Oh, what I wouldn't wish for 

Nearly came true 

To throw your love away 

Is what I didn't wanna do 

It's written on my heart 

The way I feel for you 

To make your bitter tears fall 

Is what I didn't want to do 

What I didn't wanna do 

What I didn't wanna do 

What I didn't wanna do 

What I didn't wanna do
