National - Wake Up Your Saints lyrics

rate me

I had a hole in the middle

Where the lightning went through

I told my friends not to worry

My wife would know how to fix it

I'll find somethin' better

Somethin' better to do

I can't set another version (?)

Of the same color blue

It's easy to lose your breath

It's easy

I never tell my decisions to the one's I adore

I just show up in a blanket outside the front door

But when I look in the window

There were swans on TV

They were all livin' in a church

And it meant nothin' to me

It's easy to lose your breath

It's easy

It's easy to lose your breath

It's easy

So I walk through the streets I love

And I'm led to the house I built

And I walk through the streets I love

And I lay in your bed again

Wake up your saints Jenny (?) I need them

Jenny I need them today

Wake up your saints Jenny (?) I need them

Jenny I need them today

I didn't have to explain to her

That I wasn't dead

She sat me down and lit some colored candles over my head

She said you're right it's a livin'

But you're wrong for the life

Honey you never should've listened to my mother's advice

It's easy to lose your breath

It's easy

It's easy to lose your breath

It's easy

So I walk through the streets I love

And I'm led to the house I built

And I walk through the streets I love

And I lay in your bed again

Wake up your saints Jenny (?) I need them

Jenny I need them today

Wake up your saints Jenny (?) I need them

Jenny I need them today
