The Calendar Hung Itself...
Lyricist:Conor Oberst
Does he kiss your eyelids in the morning When you start to raise your head? And does he sing to you incessantly From the space between your bed and walls?
Does he walk around all day at school With his feet inside your shoes? Looking down every few steps To pretend he walks with you
Oh, does he know that place below Your neck that is your favorite to be touched? And does he cry through broken sentences That I love you far too much?
Does he lay awake listening to your breath? Worried, you smoke too many cigarettes Is he coughing now on a bathroom floor? For every speck of tile there's A thousand more you won't ever see But you must hold inside yourself eternally
Well I drag your ghost across the country And we plotted out my death In every city, memories would whisper Here is where you rest
I was determined in Chicago But I dug my teeth into my knees And I settled for a telephone And sang into your machine
You are my sunshine Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com My only sunshine You are my sunshine My only sunshine
And I kissed a girl with a broken jaw That her father gave to her She had eyes bright enough To burn me they reminded me of yours
And in a story told she was a little girl In a red-rouge, sun-bruised field And there were rows of ripe tomatoes Where a secret was concealed
And it rose like thunder Clapped under our hands And it stretched for centuries To a diary entry's end
Where I wrote You make me happy, oh when skies are gray You make me happy, oh when skies are gray And gray, and gray
Well the clock's heart it hangs Inside it's open chest with it's hands stretched Towards the calendar hanging itself But I will not weep for those dying days
For all the ones who've left There's a few that stayed And they found me here and pulled me From the grass where I was laid
