the shins - simple song lyrics
simple song
well this is just a simple song
to say what you done
i told you about all those fears
and away they did run
you sure must be strong
and you feel like an ocean
being warmed by the sun
when i was just nine years old
i swear that i dreamt
your face on a football field
and a kiss that i kept
under my vest
apart from everything, but the heart in my chest
i know that things can really get rough when you go it alone
don’t go thinking you gotta be tough, to play like a stone
could be there’s nothing else in our lives so critical
as this little home!
my life in an upturned boat, marooned on a cliff
you brought me a great big flood
and you gave me a lift
to care, what a gift
you tell me with your tongue
and your breath was in my lungs
and you float over the rift
i know that things can really get rough when you go it alone
don’t go thinking you gotta be tough, to play like a stone
could be there’s nothing else in our lives so critical
as this little home!
well this will be a simple song to say what you’ve done
i told you about all those fears and away they did run
you sure must be strong
and you feel like an ocean
being warmed by the sun
remember walking a mile to your house, a glow in the dark
i made a fumblin’ play for your heart and the act struck a spark
you wore a charm in a chain that i stole especially for you
love’s such a delicate thing that we do, with nothing to prove
which i never knew
