Local Resident Failure Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've never been away with you and maybe that was my mistake.
I'd pack my bags tomorrow if you wanted to run away,
I'd leave my friends behind again if you'd let me come and stay.
I'll board this flight alone, I'd find you and we'd "when in Rome", and I'd go anywhere 'yeah' just to be with you.
I'll board this flight alone, and hope that one day we'd find home, and I'd go anywhere 'yeah' just to be with you.
Naked jelly wresting in the middle of Times Square, climb the Great Wall Of China, and then we're off to Disneyland.
I'll board this flight alone, I'd find you and we'd "when in Rome", and I'd go anywhere 'yeah' just to be with you.
I'll board this flight alone, and hope that one day we'd find home, and I'd go anywhere 'yeah' just to be with you.
All around the world...
