Yo La Tengo - Autumn Sweater (Tortoise remix) lyrics

When I heard the knock on the door I couldn't catch my breath Is it too late to call this off? We could slip away, wouldn't that be better Me with nothing to say and you in your autumn sweater I tried my best to hide in a crowded room, it's nearly possible I wait for you, oh, most patiently We could slip away, wouldn't that be better Me with nothing to say and you in your autumn sweater So I looked for your eyes and the waves looked like they'd pour right out of them I'll try hard, I'll try always but it's a waste of time It's a waste of time if I can't smile easily Like in the beginning, in the beginning We could slip away, wouldn't that be better Me with nothing to say and you in your autumn sweater We could slip away, wouldn't that be better Me with nothing to say and you in your autumn sweater
