Lily, I don't know how to start this letter

I'm writing you from the beach where I'm living

I got a disco outside of my window

I love all these kids, but the good times are killing me

I got a picture of you on the dashboard

So I can feel like you're watching right over me

I hope someday you're gonna move to the city

Cause the lights in this town, they don't brighten up anything

And they say such foolish things, like love, love, love, love is all you need

But everything inside is saying, danger, baby, love's gonna leave

So I played your sympathy, have mercy on me

'Cause I been hurt, I been stung, by the good name of love

'Til I threw my own heart in the sea

Among other foolish things

And I don't mind the nights and the low light

We spin 'round like records in the apartment

You still remind me of Marianne Faithfull

Lookin' like a picture taken outta the 60's

And we say such foolish things, like love love love, love is all we need

But everything inside is saying, danger, baby, love's gonna leave

So I played your sympathy, be patient with me

'Cause I been hurt, I been stung, by the good name of love

'Til I threw my own heart in the sea

Among other foolish things

And we believe such foolish things, like love love love, love is all we need

And living would be easy if we never ever had to bleed

And I've taken a dive on a smoky set of lies

I been so deceived and I've been the one lyin'

And there was this one time when I painted a masterpiece

Among other foolish things
