Chadwick Stokes — New Haven lyrics

Lyrics

What can I, what can I, what can I, what can I say
You said it all, said it all, said it all with the look you just gave
You flicker like the street lamp above us You sat there explaining, in your car while it was raining, how your feelings
had faded away
I just kept looking at the shadows of the raindrops fall down your face
We’ve never been perfect, and now here you were, ending it all instead
You always looked up when you were trying not to cry
But now you look straight ahead
I want to be with you
I want to be with you
I want to be with you
Yeah but I’m okay, I can let you go I can let you go And so I go back to New Haven where I know, well I think I can save it But you say if you come, you won’t find me And I start to feel Poison Ivy
And I want to shed my skin, yeah I want to shed my skin
Oh the life we could’ve had, oh the life we were in Cause I want to be with you
I want to be with you
I want to be with you
Yeah but I’m okay, I can let you go I can let you go So I go back to New Haven where I know, well I think I can save it And you say if you come, you won’t find me And I start to feel Poison Ivy
And I want to shed my skin, I want to shed my skin
Cause I know where you’ve gone, you’ve gone to look for him
So, I go back to the island where I know, well I think I can find him
And he can be my sweet gentleman farmer,
We’d live out our lives in the waves and the water
But I can’t find him anywhere, and I want to shed my skin
Oh the life we could’ve had, oh my life with him
Cause I want to be with you
I want to be with you
I want to be with you
Yeah but I’m okay, I can let you go What can I, what can I, what can I, what can I say
You said it all, said it all, said it all with the look you just gave
You flicker like the street lamp above us
