the perfect song

The National

Ten years older than I was
what I brought you down to see,
what I thought would make you fall in love

wearing off on our dreams
someday man i'm gonna be no different than the other rivers
I tried to look at you but I couldnt break the ice
you stood out there for an hour freezing
put your hand around my back
I guess you thought I needed that

I never try to find you
I hope you don't remember me
I hope your not alone

wanted me to take you home
you said you'd rather be alone
I never thought of that
car is warm and we had wine
but I couldn't find the perfect song

now our furniture for the one with crows feet and I can't even remember the call
sometimes I can feel your weight when I close my eyes
seven times I was under you

I never try to find you
I hope you dont remember me
I hope your not alone
I don't wanna know what your thinking
I'm looking out the window
just fucking drinking

shallow frame and shaky sticks but I know there's a river in me
shallow minded adult tricks but I know there's a river in me
