We're a long way from home Haven't seen you in so long But it all came back in one moment And the year started cold But I didn't notice at all When we found there's a room we're both in We ate Chinese food in small, white boxes Live the life we saw in Friends Your room, it barely fits the mattress Wake up, leave for work again And head out without a reservation Drinking out of paper bags And wasting time is time not wasted My English girl in an American town No elevator to the fifth floor I'll ring on the buzzer, then you'll be right down I wish time would freeze Dungarees over the hoodie, we're out Feet are three feet off the ground Lost in love, and we don't wanna be found It's just you and me My English girl in an American town, na-na-na, na-na In an American town, na-na-na, na-na And the days come and go (?) window's closed And the scent of the perfume on me Put your (?) with your phone Electric when one on one I thought I would be more nervous, darling We watch comedies then miss the ending Conversations 'til the dawn And, your changing tide, we push against it Challenge meanings in the songs Then head out without a reservation Drinking out of paper bags And wasting time is time not wasted My English girl in an American town No elevator to the fifth floor I'll ring on the buzzer, then you'll be right down I wish time would freeze Dungarees over the hoodie, we're out Feet are three feet off the ground Lost in love, and we don't wanna be found It's just you and me My English girl in an American town And, when our eyes are close together I can't explain How the scent of your perfume takes me to a higher place We can watch it unfold or we can change how it takes And we build when it breaks down We drink Moscow mules and steal the cups from Mostly the Bowery bar What a perfect day to fall in love on What a way to make a start It appears when you think all is lost Then, you don't remember when it started Never have to pretend with My English girl in an American town No elevator to the fifth floor I'll ring on the buzzer, then you'll be right down I wish time would freeze Dungarees over the hoodie, we're out Feet are three feet off the ground Lost in love, and we don't wanna be found It's just you and me My English girl in an American town No elevator to the fifth floor I'll ring on the buzzer, then you'll be right down I wish time would freeze Dungarees over the hoodie, we're out Feet are three feet off the ground Lost in love, and we don't wanna be found It's just you and me My English girl in an American town
