Fame To Claim

by Friends of Cesar Romero

1.
I’m experienced in near death experiences I’m cynical in a circular kind of way That’s what they always say
2.
Now I think I’ll take my stance I know I never had a chance Stop me when I stumble back to you When you fill my vacancy Don’t do him like you did me Stop me when I stumble back to you I don’t know why I ever tried Those phony tears never seem to dry When you leave I’ll act surprised Just another melody Same chords different key Stop me when I stumble back to you Faded and little cheap Why you keep me in your sleep? Stop me when I stumble back to you Stop me when I stumble Can you hear me Emma Rumble? Stop me when I stumble back to you
3.
It’s really hard to say but can you slip away? Girl you’ve been on my mind I don't mean to blush or make you feel rushed We only have limited time Baby I’m all yours Fondness explores Side streets and back roads Find your name in secret codes Strangers when we meet dark end of the street Just before the morning light It’s really unfair to call this an affair Just because we’re out of sight
4.
Summer summary Spent my youth beside a beach 40 hits and Coppertone® The ocean air found us alone I waited Frustrated I waited all that time for you Summer chemistry Soundtrack you made for me You were the one who wanted to write I couldn’t promise a reply I left a tear in my eye Just to even out my high Summer misery Revolutions of 33 Pop wonders now unknown You asked me why I had to go

I made you nice You made me mean I’m waking up from a bad dream I’m better off without you here I’m better off without you dear Or some might say Or so it seems I think its best if we walk away You can keep our yesterdays I never want to see you I never want to see you I never want to see you around Little Miss Underground I hope you’re fine I hope you’re well I hope your wand casts another spell You look alright in that sad girl way You play the part but you never stay You fooled them all Just like me You know my name You have my number But now it’s time for you to call another
7.
You broke your own heart Falling for that false start Sadder than a Saturday Take my hand and we’ll run away Because all I ever wanted to do Is to be the boy that you could talk to And all I ever wanted to say Don’t give it up or give it away You broke your own heart When you decided to depart Miss you more than the weekend There’s a date somewhere you won’t attend Is it too much to ask? To have a peek inside at last Borrowed tape and buying glue To bind it up inside of you You broke your own heart
8.
Don’t stay too long in love You’ve got to get yourself back to me I’ve been so lonely without your love Can’t help but think about what could be I’ll keep holding on Do you wonder why I’m waiting? Often I think about the same thing Seems like I’ve held my breath for so long Maybe it’s time I see what time brings
