Lifetime - Bob Mould
Written by:Mould
The clouds move between
You and me and New York city
The song gets fuzzy
On am radio
Tucked underneath
The pillow
I move my fingers slow
Across the frequencies
And try
Dial in the sound
To drown the noise out
And stop the world from falling
How it anchors me now
Half the verse
It disappears gets
In the static and the haze
And the second refrain gets lost in the rain
But that's the magic and mystery
That's how we fall in love
We worship god together
And worship us alone
As we kneel at the bed
You turn the light out
And say good night out loud
What a lifetime we have
So when you're old and broken down
And you can't conjure up a sound
Don't despair
My darling
The tubes will glow
And fill the room
With the scent of burning dust
That's the lifetime we have
That's the lifetime we have
That's the lifetime we have
That's the lifetime we have
Don't despair
Don't despair
My darling
But that's the magic and mystery
That's how we fall in love
That's the lifetime we have
That's the lifetime we have
But that's the magic and mystery
That's how we fall in love
