Shins, The - Gone For Good текст песни

Untie me, I've said no vows

The train is getting way too loud

I've got to leave here, my girl

And get on with my lonely life

Just lay the ring on the rail

For the wheels to nullify



Until this turn in my head

I let you stay and you paid no rent

I spent twelve long months on the lam

That's enough sitting on the fence

For the fear of breaking dams



I find a fatal flaw

In the logic of love

And go out of my head

You love a sinking stone

That will never elope

So get used to the lonesome, girl

You must atone some

Don't leave me no phone number there



It took me all of a year

To put that poisoned pill to your ear

But now I stand on honest ground

You want to fight for this love

But honey, you cannot wrestle a dove

So baby, it's clear



You wanted to jump and dance

But you sat on your hands

And lost your only chance

Go back to your hometown

Get your feet on the ground

And stop floating around



I find a fatal flaw

In the logic of love

And go out of my head

You love a sinking stone

That will never elope

So get used to the lonesome, girl

You must atone some

Don't leave me no phone number there
