Lyrics
The National
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.
It's as if you brushed across my way,
Your scent gave you all away,
Im ok to say your just a face, your just a face,
The other day, someone mentioned you name
It brought back, hurt and all your pain,
It be a lie to say that I was ok, I was ok,
I was ok,
But maybe i'll see you at the National,
Maybe wei'll sing that song that we like the most,
Maybe you forgive me, and i'll forget,
Maybe we'll sing along to the national,
Now that you're gone
Things are going my way,
It took some time,
But I think about you less each day,
It just there's pieces
I would give away, I'd give away,
But maybe I'll see you at the National,
Maybe we'll sing that song that we like the most,
Maybe you forgive me, and I'll forget,
Maybe we'll sing along to the national,
What about love,
What about you,
What about me,
Say hello,
Say good-bye,
To what we used to be,
What about love,
What about you,
What about me,
Say hello,
Say good-bye,
To what we used to be,
Maybe I'll see you at the National,
Maybe we'll sing that song that we like the most,
Maybe you forgive me, and I'll forget,
Maybe we'll sing along to the national,
