Everywhere but beside You Lyrics

Summer's sticky sickness

And one Jehovah's Witness

Knocking at my sticky summer door

Just swishing beer

And wishing I weren't still living here

With nowhere else I think I might like more

Guy in the alley

Screaming a finale

About some money that somebody owes

Well, I've been going a long time owing

A debt to someone I don't even know

There wasn't much to say the day I met you

Wasn't much to do all summer long

But I could tell

From the moment it fell

Everywhere but beside you felt wrong

So hold a second

And tell me what you've reckoned

About the night that we spent on the floor

It's gotten pretty quiet on the lonely-hearted diet

As I scavenge through the drive-thus evermore

Having slammed the cupboard

I hit the northern suburb

Where the cashiers at Home Depot know my name

I duplicate the house key

That you forgot to leave me

And every cashier last year felt the same

There wasn't much to say the day I met you

Wasn't much to do all summer long

But I could tell

From the moment it fell

Everywhere but beside you felt wrong

And after all the birthdays this fall

Everywhere but beside you

Everywhere but beside you

Everywhere but beside you will feel wrong
