"Name For You" lyrics
"Name For You"
My girl if you're lucky one day
Rolling down the ancient high street you'll find
In the mirror reflects a woman in her prime
Can you make your way out?
In a world dearly won
Well it's yours love
You can move it around
Given all the drops in the ocean
Better take it one sip at a time
Somebody with an antique notion
Come along to tighten the line
They're just afraid of you speaking your mind
They've got a name for you girls
What's in a name?
They got a name for everything
All of the clothes that you wear
And all of your bits and pieces yeah
You're flipping through the check-stand rags it appears
There ain't no time to waste, you're getting on in years
You can keep your can up
If you just never eat again
It's a means to a terrible end
Even if your plan is successful
Have you really got room in your life?
Yeah and it's a bland kind of torture
You've played the mother and wife
But what do you really dream of at night?
They've got a name for you girls
What's in a name?
They've got a name for you girls
What's in a name?
They got a name for everything
All of the clothes that you wear
And all of your bits and pieces yeah
They've got a name for you girls
Some stupid name
They've got a name for you girls
What's in a name?
What's in a name?
What's in a name?
What's in a name?
What's in a name?

Matt & Kim - "Let's Run Away" 1, 2, 1, come on!
Let's run, run, run, run away
Don't bring, bring anything
Somewhere, where, where, where we'll stand
Without locks, keys, and kings
Called on the last pay phone
Just to hear it...
Dirty Projectors - "Keep Your Name" I don't know why you abandoned me
You were my soul and my partner
What we imagined and what we became

Whitney - "Golden Days" Oh, don't you save me from hangin' on
I tell myself what we had is gone
And after all that I put you through
I get knocked out like I never knew
It kept me real 'til I'm moving on
But you can't...
Fleet Foxes - "Wading In Waist-High Water" Summer all over
Blame it on timing
Weakening August water
Loose-eyed in morning
Sunlight covered over
Wading in sight of fire
And we're finally aligning
More than maybe I can choose
Soon as I knew...
