this song isn't really on here when it's not being sung live, so i figured i'd put up a recording with some random pics. don't be mean, please, this is my first video and i know it's pretty bad. it's just for the music.
LYRICS:
I'd swim across lake Michigan
I'd sell my shoes
I'd give my body to be back again
In the rest of the room
To be alone with you
To be alone with you
To be alone with you
To be alone with you
You gave your body to the lonely
They took your clothes
You gave up a wife and a family
You gave your goals
To be alone with me
To be alone with me
To be alone with me
You went up on a tree
To be alone with me you went up on the tree
I'll never know the man who loved me
DISCLAIMER: I did not make the music or pictures on this. the music is to be alone with you by sifjan stevens and the pictures were found on google, iconator, and photobucket.

I remember listening to this song at the dead of night with my head pressed into the pillow... in complete darkness, I cried so hard.

This video is just awful. This isnt a romantic love song...

@xLordOfTheFliesx I just put random pictures to it. I just put it on here to have it on youtube not being sung live. and I know it's not a love song, but it could be.

Great video, beautiful video.
Word of advice though, in your video description it's better to put "DISCLAIMER" than "NOTE" I got told off for that once on one of my videos, youtube deleted the audio track to five of my videos that hate "PLEASE NOTE" etc. After I wrote disclaimer and appealed against the removal of the audio track with a fair statement they put it back (: it would save you the hassle.
