Foxygen - San Francisco lyrics

rate me

Up in san francisco where the forest meets the bridge

I thought I saw you standing there

And then you fell into the well

But that was many years ago

I am so much older now

My brother is a soldier now

I can’t see the many

Now I melt down in the wind

And you, swimming up tide

Or just tuning in to new sensations

[Chorus]

I left my love in san francisco

That’s ok, I was bored anyway

I left my love in the room

That’s ok, I was born in la

I left my love in san francisco

That’s ok, I was bored anyway

I left me love in the field

That’s ok, I was born in la

And we’re restricting on this field

Jesus came from Israel

Eyes upon the secret town

So not to wake a sparrow splashing up

But that was many years from now

And I hope from here on now

To always seem want to shout

Your eyes are like a cup of tears

Sending to the sun with me

And you, swimming up stream

Or just tuning in to new sensations

I was broken and you’re broken

[Chorus]

I left my love in san francisco

That’s ok, I was bored anyway

I left me love in a room

That’s ok, I was born in la

I left my love in san francisco

That’s ok, I was bored anyway

I left me love in the field

That’s ok, I was born in la.
