Lyrics Yo La Tengo

Yo La Tengo

Autumn Sweater

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

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...
