letra de i should have stopped - john wesley harding

[verse 1]
i remember you when we were both at school
for one short week we shared the same carpool (hey, hey)
then i saw you today
you’re looking pretty special in your disco hat
as you do your dirty laundry at the laundromat
life has intervened but nothing’s changed
your eyes looked kind of tired
but you basically looked the same, the same

[verse 2]
you were never really that good at sports
but you kissed me on a dare behind the tennis courts (hey, hey)
you’d been all the way
and i always was afraid of your fearsome friends
you used to disappear with them for long weekends
one day you left, monday never came
there you were standing
in the wash and fold again
[chorus]
i should have stopped and said “h-llo” but i didn’t
i’ll go back to the mess at home
i should have stopped and said “let’s go” but i couldn’t
i’ll leave my memories alone

[verse 3]
we were very nearly in the same school play
but i ended up as prompter for the matinees (hey, hey)
you played salome
and i saw you in your bra in the costume tent
i ran across the stage in embarrassment
even now, it’s harder not to stare
at you sorting out the whites from the colours in your underwear

[chorus]
i should have stopped and said “h-llo” but i didn’t
i’ll go back to the mess at home
i should have stopped and said “let’s go” but i couldn’t
i’ll leave my memories alone

[bridge]
because it’s ancient history and we are not the same
and we will never know the mystery again

[chorus]
i should have stopped and said “h-llo” but i didn’t
i’ll go back to the mess at home
i should have stopped and said “let’s go” but i couldn’t
i’ll leave my memories alone
i’ll leave my memories alone, yeah yeah
