The Postal Service

Our Secret

The Postal Service


I was walking in our town
I was walking through the store
I saw a pretty girl
She held open the door
I said: I like you
She said that she liked me
And we could be friends
In our special, stupid way

I went to Pacific Cafe
There she was again
So I said: Hey
We should go swimming in Capital Lake
We had a lot of fun
But then it got real latе
So I walked her home
And had dinnеr with her family

That's why we're running away
That's why we're running away
That's why we're running away
That's why we're running away
That's why we're running away
That's why I had dinner with her family

We went to her friend's house
To have a cup of tea
She said that it was true
She was in love with me
I knew right then
We'd have to be alone
Because no one in this whole world
Could ever understand

That's why we're running away
That's why we're running away
That's why we're running away
That's why we're running away
That's why we're running away
That's why I had dinner with her family

That's why we're running away
Thank you very much everybody
Uh, here's a song about the city that I live in
A city called Seattle, Washington
