[Lyric] Esmeralda 2021 Alternate Version (Kids Can't Fly)

Her pins prick like fire in the streetlight
So when the rain came once again she walked out dry
And the hip shake, shake, shake, says to sense sorry
Take, take, take a back seat while I lose my mind

(You make this work with heart and soul)

Is this the last time we'll race our hearts
For the sweet taste that blows apart
Every worst case placed since the last
Seems a quiet night for the fright of your life…

Esmeralda...
Couldn't bring myself to actually tell hеr
So I just run away
When things ain't the same
Esmеralda…
There's something I've been dying to tell ya
I'm in love with the way
That you save my day
High heels click, click for home
On something never seen so hot so hollow
Under currents hiding head to toe
Sensation soothes my soul

We built these dreams on things with think but don't know…

Esmeralda...
Couldn't bring myself to actually tell her
So I just run away
When things ain't the same
Esmeralda…
There's something I've been dying to tell ya
I'm in love with the way
That you save my day

I draw a breath and claw for ways
To say the things I need to say
Esmeralda…

Esmeralda...
Couldn't bring myself to actually tell her
So I just run away
When things ain't the same
Esmeralda…
There's something I've been dying to tell ya
I'm in love with the way
That you save my day
