jens lekman - how can i tell him lyrics

Loading...

it’s the morning after
and we’re on a train zigzagging ‘cross the countryside
on our way home from a party
that turned insane

he dozes off on my shoulder
wakes up suddenly, apologizes
looks the other way

so tell me how
tell me how i can tell him i love him
so tell me how

the neighbor came a-knocking
said she’d call the cops
he said, “i’ll turn down the stereo”
pretended to adjust the volume kn-b

he’s my best friend
and we can talk about anything
as long it’s about nothing
as long as it don’t cut deeper than the skin

tell me how
tell me how i can tell him i love him
so tell me how
tell me how i can tell him i love him, so
tell me how

i mean i guess he knows
just like i know when he says something funny and i laugh from my belly
or when sandra left him and i held him when he cried
for a moment he left his guard down and so did i

but it’s so deep within me, the way a man should be
p-ssed on through generations of men before me
a line drawn in the sand to keep us apart
a rusty, old padlock hanging on our hearts

so tell me how

[outro]
we part ways at the station
he’s got his bike and he rides into the gap
‘tween day and night
before he’s gone he shouts, “later, dude”
i think, “yeah
i love you too”
