simple song

the shins in port of morrow albümünün çıkış parçası ve single ı. pek de güzel olmuş şirin olmuş. aferim james.

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, 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, complete like a stone
could be there’s nothing else in our lives so critical
as this little hope!
as this little hole
my life in an action boat, marooned on a cliff
you brought me a great big flood
and you gave me a lift
oh what a gift
you tell me with your tongue
and your breath goes in the lungs
and the flow that filled the rift
i know that things can really get rough when you go in love
don’t go thinking you gotta be tough, complete like a stone
could be there’s nothing else in our lives so critical
as this little hope!
well this will be a simple song to say what you’ve done
i told you about all those years and away they did run
and where they did wrong.
you sure must be strong
and you feel like an ocean
being warmed by the sun
remember walking a mile to your house that glow in the dark
i made a fumbling play for your heart and the extra of the spark
you wore a charm in a chain that i stole specially for you
love’s such a delicate thing that we do , we’ve nothing to prove
which i never knew
