White Houses

創作背景

凡妮莎·卡爾頓說：“這是首關於嫉妒的歌曲，以及描述失去了初夜，同時也關於你自己的生活。這個故事，大多數人都經歷過…它還涉及到一個女孩和她的生活環境以及成長的故事，她是如何從一個純真的人，到一個再也感覺不到這份純真的人。”這首歌由她自己和史蒂芬·詹金斯共同創作。

Crashed on the floor when I moved in

This little bungalow with some strange new friends

Stay up too late, and I'm too thin

We promise each other it's til the end

Now we're spinning empty bottles

It's the five of us

With pretty eyed boys girls die to trust

I can't resist the day

No, I can't resist the day

Jenny screams out and it's no pose

'Cause when she dances she goes and goes

Beer through the nose on an inside joke

I'm so excited, I haven't spoken

And she's so pretty, and she's so sure

Maybe I'm more clever than a girl like her

The summer's all in bloom

The summer is ending soon

It's alright and it's nice not to be so alone

But I hold on to your secrets in white houses

Maybe I'm a little bit over my head

I come undone at the things he said

And he's so funny in his bright red shirt

We were all in love and we all got hurt

I sneak into his car's cracked leather seat

The smell of gasoline in the summer heat
