The Shins - Simple Song

[Verse 1]
Well this is just a simple song
To say what you done
I told you 'bout all those fears
And away they did run
Your shore must be strong
And you feel like an ocean
Made warm by the sun

[Verse 2]
When I was just nine years old
I swear that I dreamt
Your face on a football field
And a kiss that I kept
Under my vest;
Apart from everything
But the heart in my chest

[Chorus]
I know that things can really get rough when you go it alone
Don't go thinking you gotta be tough, and play like a stone
Could be there’s nothing else in our lives, so critical
As this little home

[Verse 3]
My life in an upturned boat
Marooned on a cliff
You brought me a great big flood
And you gave me a lift
Girl, what a gift!
And you tell me with your tongue
And your breath goes in my lungs
And we float over the rift
[Chorus]
I know that things can really get rough when you go it alone
Don't go thinking you gotta be tough, and play like a stone
Could be there's nothing else in our lives, so critical
As this little home

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 1 (reprise)]
Well this would be a simple song
To say what you done
I told you about all those fears
And away they did run
Your shore must be strong
And you feel like an ocean
Made warm by the sun

[Chorus 2]
Remember walking a mile to your house
Aglow in the dark
I made a fumbling play for your heart
And the axe struck a spark
You wore a charm on the chain that I stole
Especial for you
Love's such a delicate thing that we do
With nothing to prove
Which I never knew
