i love this soooo much omfg

[xLaBelleEtLaBete]

the acoustic version sounds really heartfelt

[martyrdomcausespanic]

@xLaBelleEtLaBete I noticed that.  There's this official version of him playing this acoustic, and the first time I heard it, it sounded like a really sweet, totally un-sappy love song. Like the one that you'd play in the soundtrack of your life right as you're falling in love with someone. So beautiful.

Great video. I really love the new album. I saw these guys in concert a few days ago. They seem to be the nicest and most appreciative band out there today. I really enjoy supporting their music.

[emmma45]

it's actually "so lovely dancer call a dancer we're trading places in the night"

[dujzay]

wrong

[emmma45]

yes i realize now that i was wrong on the lyrics. that was before the cd came out with the lyrics.

[mluvsb923]

so lovely dancer called and ansered, get it straight

[S0u1Reaper19]

YEEESS! for once i got the lyrics light XD... but isn't it "trade our places"?

[erick103]

Elephant shell is an amazing album!

I like this song acoustic tho, much more tastier!

[blinkuhx3]

[royalgfx]

lyrics(w/ BLANKS) all the boys who called their mothers on that day were all a tough bunch but had the nerves to go and say that are all your secrets have __ with all the pioneers who were flooded from this town they packed their bags only moments too late with the pounding waves crashing up against the weakened water gates dire times, call for dire faces some lovely dancer, calling ____ straight up in the night we're running barefoot you and i dead lovers salivate, broken hearts tessellate

[altoids456]

first blank: drowned

[Pullkeenantail]

[nopantsman320]

[erick103]

Anyone know the lyrics to this song? Or know where an mp3 exists?

[erick103]

His guitar looks mega small..! is it just me? or he he just a giant, giant man? :P awesome song tho!! totally awesome!

[havinsomecarrots]

erick103: it's not just you! it was a tiny guitar ... well, a 3/4-sized guitar. Dave told us a story about how he bought it from a sort of grumpy old man at an antiquated music shop(pe).

[MEANBEARDRECORDINGS]
