“Concentrations In Love” Corey Durkin lyrics
Concentrations in Love – By Corey Durkin
I know too much about you to pretend that I don’t know a thing
We could go back and play in a sandbox of love
I’ve been staring at pictures for hours trying to figure out
What that boy in the blue shirt was doing with you
All I know is I saw you and thought we’d get married right away
And the world would stop breaking concentrations in love
But it don’t work that way if it did we’d be high
In a castle tucked away and safe from disasters
With your telephone chargers
Your radio watches
And your reality TV
When you look at those screens
What you wish you could see
Is a man who looks a lot like me
So darlin’ turn around darlin’ turn around and kiss me
And we’re stuck in our phones for so many long hours and I can’t
Understand why we think that typing is talking
So now I make a point to write letters at least twice a day
To the girl who I’ve loved since the very third grade since the very first day
With your telephone chargers
Your radio watches
And your reality TV
When you look at those screens
What you wish you could see
Is a man who looks a lot like me
So darlin’ turn around darlin’ turn around and kiss me
So when I watch you now
Like my father watched my mother in the eighties
Cause they both knew how
To ignore the newspapers and the radios
And we’re standing our ground
Watching marriage fly by in the blink of a red light
It’s gone
So keep holding onto love and you’ve got is
With your telephone chargers
Your radio watches
And your reality TV
When you look at those screens
What you wish you could see
Is a man who looks a lot like me
So darlin’ turn around darlin’ turn around
Oh darlin’ turn around and kiss me
