Drugstore Perfume

She waits at windows
Her dreams don't show in color, and she sleeps
For now
But she just waits around
Wishing she could leave, single mothers
In parking lots

And wear another girl's evening out
This place lets you down, easy
She gets up to buy a drink

I notice why when she walks by
There's something caught in her eye, she says
That she can't change for love

And she explains how long she's waited for
She wanted more
Dead leaves, desperate summers
All-ages club, and metal shutters to keep you out
While we hang around factories
Till we meet each other

Two discount lives and heavy numbers
To keep you down

If I wait around, maybe she
Might come back to say that I'm
Not sure you know my name, that's fine
But take me with you this time, she says

That she can't change for love
And she explains how long she's waited for
She wanted more
Gone, today

I might just see you around
It hurts but I understand
If you can't find another reason not to stay
And while she's walking away, she says
That she can't change for love
And she explains how long she's waited for
She wanted more
And as these days go by
They can't change how long we've waited for
A love that's more
A love that's more
