Forgetting Sarah Marshall movie - Get Me Away From Here I'm Dying lyrics

rate me

Song by Belle & Sebastian<br /><br>

Ooh! get me away from here Im dying<br>

Play me a song to set me free<br>

Nobody writes them like they used to<br>

So it may as well be me<br>

Here on my own now after hours<br>

Here on my own now on a bus<br>

Think of it this way<br>

You could either be successful or be us<br>

With our winning smiles, and us<br>

With our catchy tunes and words<br>

Now were photogenic<br>

You know, we dont stand a chance<br>

<br>

Oh, Ill settle down with some old story<br>

About a boy whos just like me<br>

Thought there was love in everything and everyone<br>

Youre so naive!<br>

They always reach a sorry ending<br>

They always get it in the end<br>

Still it was worth it as I turned the pages solemnly, and then<br>

With a winning smile, the poor boy<br>

With naivety succeeds<br>

At the final moment, I cried<br>

I always cry at endings<br>

<br>

Oh, that wasnt what I meant to say at all<br>

From where Im sitting, rain<br>

Falling against the lonely tenement<br>

Has set my mind to wander<br>

Into the windows of my lovers<br>

They never know unless I write<br>

This is no declaration, I just thought Id let you know goodbye<br>

Said the hero in the story<br>

It is mightier than swords<br>

I could kill you sure<br>

But I could only make you cry with these words<br>

<br>
