Kasey Anderson
Sooner/Later
The storm came in like a drunk declarationThe streets were empty, all the lights went outTwo lovesick kids in a hallway tremblingFeet shuffling, nervous, eyes filled with doubtHe looked at her and then she started laughingIt was wild and electric like the noise aboveHe said, "darlin' some things are just bound to happenAnd sooner or later we're gonna fall in love"With the snow still whispering down on New York CityHe walked the carpet of that cheap hotelOpened his door and there he found her waitingShe kicked out the window and down they fellFifteen stories through the wind and weather'Til they landed softly on the street belowShe said, "honey, right now we're passin' through togetherBut sooner or later this will feel like home"So they closed the curtains on one last sunset summerStole what they wanted, left the fools to cryHe took her hand somewhere in CaliforniaAnd he didn't let go until the Georgia lineHe never thought he'd lose her for a secondHe never thought he'd watch it slip awayBut your pulse gets weak when you're too scared to check itSooner or later he'd learn the hard wayLetras de cancionesShe lit roman candles in their old apartmentWhile he bled out on some stranger's curbMumbling about how it all comes aroundAnd sooner or later we get what we deserveShe stayed out all night with all the hometown heroesJust like she'd done a hundred times beforeTossed her wishes off the overpassAnd swore she didn't need 'em anymoreHe looked up and saw the sky was openAs he watched her moving back across the bridgeThen he rubbed his eyes and went right back to hopingThat sooner or later she'd come back to him
