Brendan Benson - How 'Bout You lyrics

rate me

(Benson)

Does it break your heart each time I fall apart?

Does it give you purpose in this life?

And when I tell the truth

Does it mean as much to you?

I could never live a lie

how 'bout you?

And I don't think it's so wrong to feel

I've lived too long

Without the pull of gravity beneath me

And it's not so hard to believe

These tricks I use to deceive

Like a rabbit from a hat or card up my sleeve

Thought about being with you

Thought how it's always been

You takin' apart what I glued

I know it's mine but it's crude I think you're so rude

Follow the moon and the sun

And all of the damage it's done

I want to but I can't run

I know it's only just begun

It ain't no fun

Thought about eyes of green

And all of the shit that they've seen

Never made it past seventeen

Man what a scene

You know what I mean?

Thought of a skull and crossbones

The poison it runs through our bones

The junkies that live with their jones

Always reaping what they've sown

My mind is blown

Thought of what's yours and what's mine

And who all has got that much time

Hey mister can you spare a dime?

The words always rhyme
