Lyrics
Lesser Oceans
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She asked 'hows seattle' in some motherly talk,
Its okay, its mostly grey,
I think I'm just leveling off
And sometimes I think I'm running around,
Like a dog with no song, no song.
And I'm following some flickering lamp,
In the fog, the fog.
I know, I know, that I'm getting older.
I don't think they really like me.
If I could stay just a little longer,
They might be giving up new greys
Think back, to the time we drove
To park slope for a walk
It's okay, it's far away
I just think I'm measuring ours
And sometimes I think you're writing this down
For the songs, the songs, the songs
And it's something that you don't really feel
But it's ours, it's ours, it's ours
I know, I know, that I'm getting older.
I don't think they really like me.
If I could stay just a little longer,
They might be giving up new greys.
Pa-pa-pa-pa, I'm getting old, I'm getting older
Pa-pa-pa-pa
Pa-pa-pa-pa, it's getting cold upon your shoulders
Pa-pa-pa-pa
I know, I know, that I'm getting older.
I don't think they really like me.
If I could stay just a little longer,
They might be giving up new greys...
