Lyrics Yo La Tengo

Yo La Tengo

Pablo and Andrea

Show me where you keep all your secrets upstairs

Night after night you sleep while they're setting off flares

Someone came and took all the roses away

Now you'll sit showing me tears if you want me to stay

Cause down the street all the meters have run out of time

Run out of time

I waited for you as the trees swayed out of time

In a crowded room I pick up your lonely stare

I'll cover for you like a slipcover covers a chair

But someone came and took all the roses away

It was only 5 minutes, it felt like it stretched into a day

Someone came and took all the roses away

Took all the roses away

Took all the roses away
