"Jaywalker" lyrics

"Jaywalker"

All of your friends started wondering why you were choking back tears at an easy goodbye
Everything started feeling urgent today, when you open your mouth you have nothing to say
Jaywalker with your head hung low, you never saw it coming

Moving your lips like you're wanting to smile, everything that you love always goes out of style
Took a good chance on a triumph or two, hangin' around town never looked good on you
Jaywalker with your head hung low, you never saw it coming

It's been a few years, you can barely recall why the things that you said have you feeling so small
Thirty-one years, now you're up on your feet, staring down and your shoes as you're crossing the street
Jaywalker with your head hung low, you never saw it coming

Woke up confused in a hospital gown with your arm in a sling and nobody around
Dreamed about Judy, she was driving a car, you were crossing the street, didn't get very far
Jaywalker with your head hung low, you never saw it coming
Jaywalker with your head hung low, you never saw it coming
