The National - The Perfect Song lyrics

rate me

ten years older than i was

what i brought you down to see,

what i thought would make you fall in love

wearing off on our dreams

someday man i'm gonna be no different than the other rivers

i tried to look at you but i couldnt break the ice

you stood out there for an hour freezing

put your hand around my back

i guess you thought i needed that

i never try to find you

i hope you don't remember me

i hope you're not alone

wanted me to take you home

you said you'd rather be alone

i never thought of that

car is warm and we had wine

but i couldn't find the perfect song

now our furniture for the one with crows feet and i can't even remember the call

sometimes i can feel your weight when i close my eyes

seven times i was under you

i never try to find you

i hope you dont remember me

i hope your not alone

i don't wanna know what your thinking

i'm looking out the window

just fucking drinking

shallow frame and shaky sticks but i know there's a river in me

shallow minded adult tricks but i know there's a river in me
