verse 1 I used to walk to corner of Fourth and Chestnut I used to ring the broken doorbell and sit and wait for you We used to live there and you could do a Boston accent And I would tell you baby just stay and let me talk to you Tell me what I have to say If it's nothing tell me that it's time to go Is it the omnipotence talking in your ear That makes you want to walk so slow? verse 2 I can attest to that if anyone, I used to let you, I used to let you get to me Unless you don't know Sorry your tears still run, And is your voice too young? I used to let you get to me And now you got a terrible way, Just, I really, really have to know Is it the omnipotence talking in your head That makes you want to walk so slow Interlude verse 3 Sorry it's just too much, Still it's too close to touch I used to let you get to me And now you got a terrible way, Just I really, really have to know Is it the omnipotence talking in your ear That makes you want to walk so slow?
