The Paper Raincoat - Motion Sickness lyrics

rate me

It just takes some getting used to

It just takes some getting used to

It just takes some getting used to is all

Out the front door to a world cold as ice

Pull my hat down and pick up my stride

I watch my breath as it steams the air to white

Winter breaks me at her start every time

Even though I'm prepared for the cold

In a while I'll be doing fine, I'm told

I know, I know

It just takes some getting used to, is all

I crossed an ocean, I took a lover

Took a picture outside the palace door

Showed my friend, he said he'd been there before

Crossed a river on a path train underground

Never thought I'd come back to my hometown

My eyes adjust to the dark as we go down

I look around

It just takes some getting used to...

It's not the changes but the s p a c e s in between

It's not the story but the cuts between the scenes

It's the part where your eyes can't focus

The minute just before you notice

The images align naturally

It just takes some getting used to, is all...
