《ticker tape(b-Side)》歌词

[00:00:00] Ticker tape - Elbow

[00:00:31] Stole the papers from a dead man

[00:00:34] And i whistled through the border

[00:00:37] And i waved with real heroes in a ticker tape parade

[00:00:44] Smiled with all my teeth just like my godmother taught me

[00:00:50] Swaddled in their praise

[00:00:52] Forgave myself how i behaved

[00:00:57] And everything i did

[00:00:58] I did for fear of working hard

[00:01:03] And i made it look deliberate and brave

[00:01:09] But someone else's heart now means more to me than mine

[00:01:15] And i swear to keep her safe till in my grave

[00:01:19] To keep her safe till in my grave

[00:01:31] I swear to keep her safe till in my grave

[00:01:47] Tie a woman to the track so you can then effect a rescue

[00:01:53] I detest you no i love you

[00:01:56] Can you see which way is up

[00:01:59] When they feel they understand you must abandon them

[00:02:04] This modus operandum may distress you but will always fill your cup

[00:02:12] And so it was until my love came holding up a mirror

[00:02:18] And i saw a soul that angels wouldn't save

[00:02:25] She showed me how my blackened heart could beat for two

[00:02:30] And how it does

[00:02:31] I swear to keep her safe till in my grave

[00:02:35] To keep her safe till in my grave

[00:02:47] And i swear to keep her safe till in my grave
