"The Story I Heard" lyrics
"The Story I Heard"
Hey you Jojo,
Yeah I know your name.
I thought I saw you,
Jump a Utah train,
But I could not say,
I could not say.
Heard you tried to
Keep your hat on a shelf.
Married a woman,
Went off and loved someone else.
It could be as well,
I cannot tell
Oh, no I cannot tell.
Hey you Jojo,
Don't you forget your name.
They might try to keep you,
From the man you have been.
So don't go that way,
Don't go that way.
The story I heard,
Is that people are bored,
And the measures you take,
To wrestle with your Lord.
All the money you take,
All the memories you spill,
Will He measure your time,
Will He measure your will,
Oh now.
One of these mornings,
Will be the loudest you hear.
You'll write your story on firecracker paper,
And disappear.
The story I heard,
Is that people are bored,
And the measures you take,
To wrestle with your Lord.
Are the measures you fake,
Whether you're dead or just still,
Will He measure your time,
Will He measure your will,
Oh now.
One of these mornings,
We'll be, We'll be.
One of these mornings,
We'll be, We'll be home.

The Dodos - "Walking" You can fight the fire that's in your head
Lay it down, the hour has come to end
Walk around without her just for a bit
Looking back upon the way things had been
Man, I've been wasting so much time...
Good Old War - "Can't Go Home" That's the last I'll compromise
Before your perfect eyes
It's a dream that wakes you up
There's nothing like sleeping alone so much
You keep holding me back when I'm on my way
I could only forget if...
Freelance Whales - "Broken Horse" October's got those orange eyes
But somehow I still lost sight
When you lifted the lid off of my pumpkin head
And kissed me goodnight
She could be a thorn in my side
We never quite broke that horse...
Beirut - "A Candle's Fire" Light a candle's fire
Carries a good name
What would you ask a campfire
That scares me just the same
And knew you had it all along
An endless need for games
Don't forget a candle's fire
Is only just...
Coconut Records - "West Coast" For a second there I thought you disappeared
It rains a lot this time of year
And we both go together if one falls down
I talk out loud like you're still around
No, no
And I miss you
I'm goin' back...
