How About You? Songtext

How About You? Songtext
They parted at the station
Each of them knowing it was destined
But not uncontrollable
Should it ever again happen
In the same scenario
And now they′re sitting in their bedrooms
On either side of the country
With their blinds drawn
Wishing for the other's company
And then those faces come
When there′s no one looking
But they turn away
Should you stare right at them
Just like these memories
I have another cool drink
Goes down easy
With these words I tend to swallow
Along with my sedative
I'll need a scapegoat
If I had a scapegoat
I'd go down easy
I′d go down easy
But that′s enough about me
Let's talk about you for a while
How about you?
How about you?
Well I only wanted to be a gentleman
Like my grandfather
With his close shave
And his straight blade
He wore a waistcoat and wellies
To keep his new shoes from getting dirty
And now I′m staring in the mirror
And I'm thinking
Exactly what were the fine attributes I received from him
And then the faces come
When there′s no one looking
But they turn away
Should you stare right at them
Just like these memories
I have another cool drink
Goes down easy
With these words I tend to swallow
Along with my sedative
I'll need a scapegoat
If I had a scapegoat
Go down easy
Go down easy
But that′s enough about me
Let's talk about you for a while
Each of them knowing it was destined
But not uncontrollable
Should it ever again happen
In the same scenario
And now they′re sitting in their bedrooms
On either side of the country
With their blinds drawn
Wishing for the other's company
And then those faces come
When there′s no one looking
But they turn away
Should you stare right at them
Just like these memories
I have another cool drink
Goes down easy
With these words I tend to swallow
Along with my sedative
I'll need a scapegoat
If I had a scapegoat
I'd go down easy
I′d go down easy
But that′s enough about me
Let's talk about you for a while
How about you?
How about you?
Well I only wanted to be a gentleman
Like my grandfather
With his close shave
And his straight blade
He wore a waistcoat and wellies
To keep his new shoes from getting dirty
And now I′m staring in the mirror
And I'm thinking
Exactly what were the fine attributes I received from him
And then the faces come
When there′s no one looking
But they turn away
Should you stare right at them
Just like these memories
I have another cool drink
Goes down easy
With these words I tend to swallow
Along with my sedative
I'll need a scapegoat
If I had a scapegoat
Go down easy
Go down easy
But that′s enough about me
Let's talk about you for a while
