sally potter (singer-songwriter) - linguistics lyrics

Loading...

i’ve got the same linguistics prof that i had in first year
the one that i complain about, and you would lend a listening ear

and i’d vent about syntax
and i’d send you sneaky snapchats
in the middle of his lectures
these days i listen better

and he always taught overtime
and that used to be a pet+peeve of mine
‘cuz i had better things to do
and all those things included you

and i’m actually finding phonetics is fairly interesting
when you can study the mouth’s movements
without dreaming of someone’s lips

[instrumental]

so for an hour and a half every thursday and friday
i take copious notes, but my mind is far away

and it smells of st. ives lotion
and it adjust in the motion
of the 94 swaying under my feet
one hand on the railing, two eyes on a screen
sitting criss+cross outside the morriset library
i heard kindness in your tone and saw it al before me
my freshmen love story

but now i sit in linguistics 2720
and i thank god for all that we’ll never be

‘cuz there’s no language in the world
could help convince that girl
that what she wanted
just wasn’t what she needed

so i thank god for the mystery
that brought me back to the beginning
that brought me back to the beginning

and this time i’m not afraid of being alone
no, this time i’m not afraid of being on my own
