The National
the pull of you
Something's leaving me behindIt's just a feeling in my mind
What was it you always said?
We're connected by a thread
If we're ever far apart
I'll still feel the pull of you
I know I get a little at the bottom of a well
or spinning and then somebody's out there
with glass furniture
This is how I lose it: everything it wants
carried to space by a dolphin baloon
Whatever you have to hang around your neck
to make you think right
Maybe we'll end up the ones
who eat chocolate chip pancakes
next to a charity swimming pool
The next time I'll see you
will probably be in some quote unquote
upscale tropical funeral
I dreamed that's what Nina Simone said to her lover John
[?] Inside they tell me
Rain falling around me
We are nothing but it's hard today
I think it's time to get back
You come back and [?] away
Sometimes I feel everything you don't know
Of how often I dream about you
You don't know how I need you
You've got me all wrong
If I said I was sorry for always being underwater would you stay?
You can take me, there's no difference between you and me
[?] Not like anything, do you hear me? Just be you
Don't let me get in the way of you finding everything
Why I'm so hard to be around?
Sometimes I don't think I'm really around here half the time
Sometimes I don't think I'm really around here at all
Sometimes I don't think I'm really around here half the time
Sometimes I don't think I'm really around here at all
Something's leaving me behind
It's just a feeling in my mind
What was is it you always said?
We're connected by a thread
If we ever get far apart
I'll still feel the pull of you
