White Houses by Vanessa Carlton

Crashed on the (1)__________ when I moved in
This little bungalow with some strange new friends
Stay up too late, and I'm too thin
We promise (2)________ other it's 'till the end
Now we're spinning empty bottles
It's the (3)________ of us
With pretty (4)________ (5)________ girls die to trust
I can't resist the day
No, I can't resist the day
Jenny screams out and it's no pose
'Cause when she dances, she (6)________ and goes
Beer (7)______________ the nose on an inside joke
And I'm so excited, I haven't spoken
And she's so pretty, and she's so sure
Maybe I'm more clever than a girl like her
Summer's all in bloom
Summer's (8)____________ soon
It's alright
And it's nice not to be so alone
But I hold on to secrets, in
White Houses

Maybe I'm a little bit over my head
I come (9)____________ at the things he said
And he's so funny in his bright red shirt
We (10)________ all in love, and we all got hurt
I sneak into his car's cracked leather seat
The (11)__________ of (12)________________ in the summer heat
Boy, we're going way too fast
It's all too (13)__________ to last
It's alright
And I put (14)____________ in his hands
But I (15)________ on to secrets, in
White Houses
Love, or something ignites in my veins
And I pray it never fades, in
White Houses
My
First
Time
Hard to explain
Rush of blood (oh)
And a little bit of pain
On a cloudy day
It's more common (16)________ you think
He's
My
First
Mistake

Maybe you were all faster than me
We gave (17)________ other up so easily
These silly little wounds will never mend
I feel so far from where I've been
So I go
And I (18)________ not be back here again
I'm gone as the day is fading, on
White Houses
I lie, put my injuries all in the dust
In my heart it's the (19)________ of us, in
White Houses
And you
Maybe you'll remember me
What I gave is yours to keep, in
White Houses, in
White Houses, in
White Houses
