"The Place That I Work" lyrics
Saint Sister & Lisa Hannigan Lyrics
"The Place That I Work"
The day you walked into the book store
Waving cross the aisle
Truth is I was glad to see you
Though I couldn't smile
I thought about the last time we spoke
What you said had hurt
Oh and now you show up talking nicely
In the place that I work
And I know it's been a month or two
But surely you remember
Oh why did you pick now to show up
Last day of December
And no this isn't a good time
But yes I'd like to talk
Maybe you should stay a while
We could take a walk
And I wish I wasn't so nervous
But you put me on edge
Last time that I saw you
Our legs were swinging from the ledge
Of the window at that party
I remember the feel of it
And how fucking real was it
When we had it all
And we had it all
I can't count the nights we stayed up
Talking miles in subtleties
Now I can't bear to catch your eye
Or stray from pleasantries
And I know that I don't have the right
To say this anymore
But I love you
Won't you hang around
I get off at four
The day you walked into the book store
Waving cross the aisle
Truth is I was glad to see you
Though I couldn't smile
I thought about the last time we spoke
What you said had hurt
Oh and now you show up talking nicely
In the place that I work

Lucy Dacus - "Night Shift" The first time I tasted somebody else's spit, I had a coughing fit
I mistakenly called them by your name
I was let down it wasn't the same
I'm doing fine, trying to derail my one track mind...
The National - "Light Years" You were waiting outside for me in the sun
Laying down to soak it all in before we had to run
I was always ten-feet behind you from the start
Didn't know you were gone 'til we were in the car
Oh,...
This Is The Kit - "Keep Going" He had a peace
The earth speaking up through his feet
Underneath
Up through the darkness it speaks
The power in the naming
The story is the telling
Potential in the waiting
Movement is deciding...
Sylvan Esso - "Free" Oh, people always ask me
What it's like to love everybody
What it's like to love everybody
They ask me
I tell them don't be crazy
There's too many people around me
If I loved them all they'd break...
