[00:00:00] Phil's Song (Learn to Stop Time) - Conor Oberst The Mystic Valley Band

[00:00:17] Well there's a lady I know down in acapulco

[00:00:19] Has a house up high on a hill

[00:00:21] Don't bother bringing medicine

[00:00:24] Her smile is your pill

[00:00:27] There's a beach down the street just 100 feet

[00:00:30] Going to stick my toes in the sand

[00:00:32] There's a couple so old they're taking a stroll

[00:00:35] But they're still holding hands

[00:00:38] If there's a secret they have well I'd like to know

[00:00:41] They could whisper it right in my ear

[00:00:43] They said open your eyes because you're living blind

[00:00:45] And know love is greater than fear

[00:00:49] Because I've been up and I've been down

[00:00:54] No I've been around and around

[00:00:58] Well there's a girl I see when I go back out east

[00:01:01] She let's me sleep in her bed

[00:01:04] In the morning we talk about everything

[00:01:06] What she learned from the books she's read

[00:01:10] There's a store on the corner that sells anything

[00:01:12] A simple man might need

[00:01:15] Cigarettes and coffee

[00:01:17] Lotto tickets just to dream

[00:01:21] There's a park on the way where I like to go

[00:01:23] Just to sit and watch the folks

[00:01:26] Kids playing ball

[00:01:28] Their mamas on the phone

[00:01:31] Because I've been here and I've been there

[00:01:36] With you I feel safe and I feel scared

[00:01:41] But if I could learn to stop time

[00:01:45] Don't you know I would

[00:01:47] How sweet it would be

[00:01:50] Only if I could

[00:02:07] There's a friend I have she up and packed her bag

[00:02:09] And headed way up north

[00:02:12] Turned her back on everything she knew

[00:02:14] To brainwash some new foolish fool

[00:02:17] If I had to guess he ain't much different than me

[00:02:20] Pretty smart but fairly dumb

[00:02:23] Fall in line behind a pretty smile

[00:02:25] And a phony selfish charm

[00:02:29] But the past is the past and I don't look back

[00:02:31] But sometimes she'll call my phone

[00:02:34] Open the wound just to rub some salt

[00:02:36] She's a miserable person but it ain't her fault

[00:02:39] Because I've been here and I've been there

[00:02:44] But with you I feel safe and I feel scared

[00:02:49] I've been up and I've been down

[00:02:54] No I've been around and around

[00:02:59] But if I could learn to stop time

[00:03:03] Don't you know I would

[00:03:05] How sweet it would be

[00:03:08] Only if I could
