No Myth -- Michael Penn -- Lyrics

No Myth -- Michael Penn

Charted: 1990
Peaked at #13
RCA -- 9111
From the album "March"
B-Side "Big House"

So
She says it's time she goes
But, wanted to be sure I know
She hopes we can be friends

I think, yeah, I guess we can say "hi"
But, didn't think to ask her why
She blocked her eyes and drew the curtains
With knots I've got yet to untie

Chorus:
What if I were Romeo in black jeans
What if I was Heathcliff
It's no myth
Maybe she's just looking for
Someone to dance with

See
It was just too soon to tell
And looking for some parallel
Could be an endless game

We
We said goodbye before hello
My secrets she will never know
And if I dig a hole to China
I'll catch the first junk to Soho

Chorus

Sometime from now, you'll bow to pressure
Some things in life you cannot measure by degrees
I'm between the poles and the equator
Don't send no private investigator to find me, please
Unless he speaks Chinese
And can dance like Astaire overseas
Ok

What if I was
So what if I was
Maybe she's just looking for
Someone to dance with

Chorus
