Paradise Cove Lyrics - Back And Fourth - Pete Yorn

Play me a song... 

Play me a song 

Sing your heart out 

Expecting the sun 

I got what I wanted and it wasn't enough 

I got what I wanted when you showed up 

I got what I wanted and it's never enough 

I drove out to the white trash beach 

On a brief vacation 

I'd felt freer than I had in a long time 

I wondered if its cause you were gone 

I got what I wanted when you showed up 

I got what I wanted and it's wasnt enough 

I got what I wanted when you showed up 

I got what I wanted and it's never enough 

Surfers protect the actors from flashers 

Fathers and sons talk it out like brothers 

The water doesn't sting as much in the summer 

The waves can carry you home 

To the girl with the shapes and another life 

A freckled complexion and squinting eyes 

You want so much to tell her but it feels like a lie 

I got what I wanted and it's wasnt enough 

I got what I wanted when you showed up 

I got what I wanted and it's never enough..never enough 

When you talk it makes me cringe 

you want so bad to have meaning 

But you're empty and draining 

You're so 4th street 

I can't take it 

I know I shouldn't care 

But you're lifes intersecting where mines disconnecting 

But you're lifes intersecting where mines disconnecting 

I got what I wanted when you showed up 

I got what I wanted and it's wasnt enough 

I got what I want when you showed up 

I got what I wanted and it's never enough..never enough 

that could be bad for u both
