LYRICS

Sometimes when i'm singing
you draw pictures on the walls
And I wonder then if how i feel
makes sense to you at all
I show tunes to you I've written
so you cover them in paint
They're better now, grey and smudged and
dirty like your face

I swung you to the city
and you wished that it was new
so you could write an art-house film
and i could make my debut
All I am asking of you now
is just to take me back in time
to the nights above the city
When you asked if you were mine

I'll drive with you all morning
down the streets and avenues
And then we'll sit among the gravestones
and I'll try to break the news
that I am happier with you
than I will ever be again
I'll give up before I'm done
and we can dance in the rain

I swung you to the city
and you wished that it was new
so you could write an art-house film
and i could make my debut
All I am asking of you now
is just to take me back in time
to the nights above the city
When you swore that you were mine

I would give everything I have
to tell you everything I want
But there's too much I have to tell you
and too much that I forgot
I wonder now if all this time with you
will linger in my mind
beyond the days we spend so vacantly
When this is left behind

I won't regret the taste of you
or how your head feels on my chest
I'll never spill a single secret
or a sin that you confessed
And I won't cry when this is over
When it's time to say goodbye
No I won't cry
I won't cry

  • I know this was a long time ago so comments won't matter much to you, but just so you know, I was in a really awful mood when I came onto Youtube (my family sucks sometimes...), but this made me feel so much better :) So, you know, thanks for singing and stuff and therefore stopping me from feeling so hopeless <3

  • @QueenOfTheAubergines you're very welcome :]

  • Dr. Noise just covered this! It was such an amazing cover that I had to find the original. Now I understand why he had to cover it, because this song is just amazing.

  • @halosandbagels this isn't even the original! Check out my original version on youtube com/fortunesfall :]

  • do you have the tabs/piano music for this? (well, obviously YOU have them, I guess the real question is have you shared them anywhere?) also, do you know what happened to Alex's cover of this song? I really liked that version too...

  • @neopolitan1177 I've never tabbed this song. It's in the key of G.

  • I'm not going to advise you on how to break the law, especially not when it would put me out of pocket.

  • Listening to this again and again.

  • I figured that I would let you know that this song is one of my favorites of all time... Everytime I'm down, I listen to it... I will spend half an hour just waiting for this song to come on Last.fm so I can listen to it just that one time. Thank you for doing what you do and keep it up. DFTBA
