Lyrics The Walkmen

The Walkmen

Angela Surf City

Angela holds a grudge over nothing

Angela, what’s the difference?

Today’s a day like any other

Still the flag snaps in the wind

Still your name rings true

You took the high road

I couldn’t find you up there

You kept your jaw wired closed

I never noticed before

I used to see the signs

Now I dream of the time

I was holding on to you

For a lack of anything to do

Still the white caps roll away

Still your name rings true

Mine is yours, yours is yours

Life goes on, life goes on all around you

Let’s go home happy again

Just take your head from your hands

Take up the cause just once more

I never noticed before

I used to see the signs

Now I dream of the time

I was holding on to you

For a lack of anything to do

Back to school

Back to work

Can this go on forever?

Angela, what’s the difference?

Life goes on all around you
