Shins - Simple Song Lyrics
Well this is just a simple song to say what you doneI told you about all those fears and the way they did runYou sure must be strongand you feel like an ocean being warmed by the sunWhen I was just nine years oldI swear that I dreamedYour face on a football field and the kiss that I keptUnder my vest, apart form everything, with the heart in my chestChorus:I know that things can really get rough when you go it aloneDon't go thinking you gotta be tough, to bleed like a stoneCause the is nothing else in our lives so criticalAs this little homeMy life in an upturned boat, marooned on a cliffYou brought me a great big flood and you gave me a liftGirl, waht a giftWill you tell me with your tongue and your breath was in my lungsand we float up through the riftChorus:I know that things can really get rough when you go it aloneDon't go thinking you gotta be tough, to bleed like a stoneCause the is nothing else in our lives so criticalAs this little homeWill this will be a simple song to say what you've doneI told you about all those fears and the way they did runYou sure must be strong,and you feel like an ocean being warmed by the sunremember walking a mile to your house aglow in the darkI made a fumbling play for your heart and the act struck a sparkYou wore a charm in a chain that I stole especial for youLove's such a delicate thing that we do, with nothing to proveWich I ever knew.
