Standing On The Corner (Roxanne) Lyrics

To-night... when it was fight or flight

She said she wouldn't bite

Even though that's what she said

It went straight over my head

Wait.... maybe it's not too late

Don't leave it up to fate

Take her for a spin

Maybe she wants to get in

Roxanne, Roxanne

I only wanted you to hold my hand

Until I came up with a better plan, Roxanne

Don't you think that you should have called her

Don't you think then you could stand a little taller

Did you think that you could not afford her

Is that why you left her standing on the corner

Turn around...it's so clear and loud

You can hear her now

It's just a voice in your head

Repeating what she said said

Be still... we've got some time to kill

Just hold your breath until

You put your foot to the floor

Cause you can't take anymore

Roxanne, Roxanne

I only wanted you to hold my hand

Until I came up with a better plan, Roxanne

Roxanne, Roxanne

I only wanted you to hold my hand

Until I came up with a better plan, Roxanne

Don't you think that you should have called her

Don't you think then you could stand a little taller

Did you think that you could not afford her

Is that why you left her standing on the corner

Roxanne, Roxanne

I only wanted you to hold my hand

Until I came up with a better plan, Roxanne

Roxanne, Roxanne, Roxanne
