Leave the Scene Behind - The Wave Pictures

She wrote my name, in her diary and today again

And now I know how it feels to live behind the scenes

I know how it feels to kiss into the dream

Of a girl who, likes to keep it fresh and new

Behind closed doors, on chequered floors

Down mahogany halls

This is what she said to me

This is what she said to me

If you want to be with me

You’ve gotta leave that scene behind

And if you want to be free

You’ve gotta push your friends aside

In the modern school of urban fantasy

Who’s best writers include her and me

We get down on our knees and pray to thee

Leather-bound black diary

She said David you’ll always be a baby brother

And you’ll always be a mother’s son

And you’ll always be somebody’s favourite pupil

But you will never be the man that I want

This is what she said to me

This is what she said to me

If you want to be with me

You’ve gotta leave that scene behind

And if you want to be free

You’ve gotta push your friends aside

You’ve gotta push, push, push your friends aside

Leave that scene behind

Push, push, push your friends aside

Leave that scene behind
