Sweet November Lyrics
Showers pounding out a new beat
I trade my old shoes for new feet
I grab a new seat
I don't like the one I've got
The fabric's wearing through
And it's wearing me out
You're wearing me down
Watch your baseball games and low budget telethons
Ain't like watching you yourself when you yourself is on
Got time to wonder, to waste and to whine
But when it comes to you
It seems like I just can't find the time
So watch your head and then watch the ground
It's a silly time to learn to swim when you start to drown
It's a silly time to learn to swim on the way down
If I gave you my number, would it still be the same
If I, if I saved you from drowning
Promise me you'll never go away
Oh, promise me you'll always stay
Closed down the last local zoo
I'm going to win the endless war
Over who kills the last koala bear
And who in death will love him more and I
He grabs me by the hand
Drags me to the shore and says
"Maybe you don't love me
But you'll grow to love me even more"
And I, well, I'm not surprised
I trade my old shoes for new feet
I grab a new seat
I don't like the one I've got
The fabric's wearing through
And it's wearing me out
You're wearing me down
Ain't like watching you yourself when you yourself is on
Got time to wonder, to waste and to whine
But when it comes to you
It seems like I just can't find the time
It's a silly time to learn to swim when you start to drown
It's a silly time to learn to swim on the way down
If I, if I saved you from drowning
Promise me you'll never go away
Oh, promise me you'll always stay
I'm going to win the endless war
Over who kills the last koala bear
And who in death will love him more and I
He grabs me by the hand
Drags me to the shore and says
"Maybe you don't love me
But you'll grow to love me even more"
And I, well, I'm not surprised
