What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I got off work just past 11
2
Laid one finger to the breeze
3
You can almost taste the action
4
On nights like these
5
Trees were bending in the wind
6
And you were 40 miles away
7
And I was headed your direction
8
I'd been waiting all day, i'd been waiting all day
9
Moon over West Covina
10
Was huge and white
11
And I was like a patient on a table
12
Headed toward the light
13
Leaned toward the center divider
14
Feel the wind in my hair
15
Keep a light up in your window
16
I'm gonna be right there, I'm gonna be right there
17
With a gleam in my eye
18
and an almost airtight alibi
19
Down by the Chemistry building
20
I found a quiet place to park
21
And I made my way down the street toward your place
22
Stepping lightly in the dark
23
Climbed the steps up to your doorway
24
Like a man prepared to jump beneath a train
25
It's real warm outside tonight
26
Maybe tomorrow it rains, maybe tomorrow it rains
27
Inside your room we shut the window
28
And we turned on a fan
29
And we lay there together in the darkness
30
I can keep a secret if you can
31
Finishing one another's sentences
32
Like a pair of identical twins
33
Your boyfriend's out of town until Tuesday
34
And nobody saw me come in, nobody saw me come in
35
With a gleam in my eye and an almost airtight alibi
