Secondhand Serenades

Secondhand serenades

Afternoon Lullabies

Bits and Pieces

Sneak Peeks

That's all I ever get

You're like a dark house

And every now and then

You open up the windows

Just a little bit

And tell me to look in

.. like a dark house

Let me in, will you?

I don't want slightly opened windows

I want the doors wide open

So I can walk right in

And make a home for you and I

Secondhand serenades?

I want the whole song

And I want to be the first to hear it

Afternoon Lullabies?

How about you spend the night?

And i want to wake up... to you

Bits and Pieces?

I want all the pieces

I want all of you

Sneak Peeks?

I want the whole picture

I want the whole shebang

But I'm not ready

So I get secondhand serenades

And borrowed words

When I guess what you would rather do

Is serenade me from the very depths

Very depths of your vulnerable heart

I get secondhand serenades

Afternoon Lullabies

Bits and Pieces

Sneak Peeks

Because that's all I ever have to offer

Inspiration: Secondhand Serenade (the band, with lead vocalist John Vesely). I was listening to my favorite song on the album 'A Twist In My Story', the song is called Fall for You. You should look for it, its good. Alright, so I've always wondered, why the name 'secondhand serenade' for a band? And what the heck is a secondhand serenade...so ya, I was thinking, then I started writing, and then in the middle somewhere, I decided to add a twist (lol, 'A twist in MY story', haha, i'm an idiot, lmao..but if you didn't catch dat then maybe i'm not such a dry idiot after all)..and then I just kept on writing ...
