Scott Helman - Chinese Restaurant Lyrics




I wish I was your comfort
I built you a nest
You'd be my blue bird
I'd shut out the world that don't deserve you
And I'd make you a home
Oh-ho, oh-ho, a home

If I was your journal
You could tell me everything you yearn for
I'd be the fragile pages that you turn to
When you feel alone
Alone, alone, alone

Ooh-oh, I only saw you once
In a Chinese restaurant
You had your hoodie up
Beer in a Styrofoam cup
I didn't have the guts to talk you up
Ooh-oh, I only saw you once
In a Chinese restaurant

I could be your boyfriend
Your counterpart
Your lover and your best friend
The hole in the fence a the dead end
Some body you can get into debt with
Come here

Ooh-oh, I only saw you once
In a Chinese restaurant
You had your hoodie up
Beer in a Styrofoam cup
I didn't have the guts to talk you up

Ooh-oh, I only saw you once
In a Chinese restaurant
I swear that we locked tight
Under the florescent lights
I didn't have the guts to talk you up

I only saw you once but somehow I know I'm bad for you
I only saw you once so tell me why I'd die for you
And all these other girls, I see them 'round but they won't do
Tell me where are you now
Where are you now, Ooh-oh

Ooh-oh, I only saw you once
In a Chinese restaurant
You had your hoodie up
Beer in a Styrofoam cup
I didn't have the guts to talk you up

Ooh-oh, I only saw you once
In a Chinese restaurant
I swear that we locked tight
Under the florescent lights
I didn't have the guts to talk you up

Wish I was your comfort
I built you a nest you'd be my blue bird
I'd shut out the world that don't deserve you
And I'd make you a home
