this has been bugging me for the past few days.
Who sings the song about Romeo in black jeans,
just looking for someone to dance with?

And if anyone has the lyrics, I would appreciate it.

Gwen

The song is "no Myth" from the brother of actor Sean Penn. Don't know his
first name though...

: Who sings the song about Romeo in black jeans,


: just looking for someone to dance with?

It's called "No Myth" and it's by Michael Penn.

So, she says its time she goes
but wanted to be sure I know
she hopes we can be friends
I think yeah, I guess we can say I
but didn't think to ask her why
she blocked her eyes and drew the curtains
with knots I've got yet to untie
what if I were Romeo in black jeans
what if I was Heathcliff, its 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
can be an endless game
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
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
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
'less he speaks Chinese
and can dance like Astaire overseas
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

It's "No Myth", by Michael Penn (Sean's brother), from his first album,
"March".

The lyrics go like this (I might do some mistakes, since I don't have the
words in front of me):

So, she said 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 I
But didn't think to ask her why
She blocked her eyes and drew the curtains
With knots I've got yet to untie

So 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

(...)
Can 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 train to Soho

So what if...

Sometimes, from now, we're 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
'less he speaks Chinese, and can dance like Astaire overseas

okay... (solo)

So what if...

So what if...

And looking for some parallel
