The National

Keep your legs from shaking, fill your eyes with new tears
Don t ask questions, you don t know your name
Something for everyone, try to win prizes
Stay young and quiet

Tall Saint, I m devoted with a glass of champagne to you
Bubbles to the chandelier
I m in your hands tonight, Tall Saint
Stay behind me

Don t tell everybody at the table about your dreams
They re too amazing, it ll melt their minds
Take em to Hollywood, cut out the good parts
Become millionaires

Tall Saint, I m devoted with a glass of champagne to you
Bubbles to the chandelier
I ve been looking for you all night, Tall Saint
Stay behind me now, Tall Saint

In my city, I didn t make a sound
When I fell over and cracked my crown
Heard a woman say
Stay down, Champion, stay down

Tall Saint, I m devoted with a glass of champagne to you
Bubbles to the chandelier
I m in your hands tonight, Tall Saint
Stay behind me now, Tall Saint
Stay behind me now, Tall Saint

In my city, I didn t make a sound
When I fell over and cracked my crown
Heard a woman say
Stay down, Champion, stay down
But I got up, got in a car
Said I don t think I m gonna go very far
Just take me one time around the ballroom slow
And take me home
