Rilo Kiley - Silver Lining



and I'm not going back
into rags or in the hole
and our bruises are coming
but we will never fold

and I was your silver lining
as the story goes
I was your silver lining
but now I'm gold

hooray hooray
I'm your silver lining
hooray hooray
but now I'm gold

and I was your silver lining
high up on my toes
we were running through fields of hitch-hikers
as the story goes

hooray hooray
I'm your silver lining
hooray hooray
but now I'm gold

hooray hooray
I'm your silver lining
hooray hooray
but now i'm gold

and the grass it was a ticking
and the sun was on the rise
I never felt so wicked
as when I willed our love to die

and I was your silver lining
as the story goes
I was your silver lining
but now i'm gold

hooray hooray
I'm your silver lining
hooray hooray
but now I'm gold

hooray hooray
I'm your silver lining
hooray hooray
but now I'm gold

but now I'm gold
but now I'm gold

When In Rome - The Promise



If you need a friend, don't look to a stranger,
You know in the end, I'll always be there.
But when you're in doubt, and when you're in danger,
Take a look all around, and I'll be there.

I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say.
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be.
But if you'll wait around awhile,
I'll make you fall for me,I promise you, I promise you I will.

When your day is through, and so is your temper,
You know what to do, I'm gonna always be there.

Sometimes if I shout, it's not what's intended.
These words just come out, with no gripe to bear.
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say.
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be.

But if you'll wait around awhile, I'll make you fall for me,
I promise you, I promise you...
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say.
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be.

And if I had to walk the world, I'd make you fall for me,
I promise you, I promise you I will.
I gotta tell you, I gotta tell you, I need to tell you...
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say.
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be.

But if you'll wait around awhile,
I'll make you fall for me,I promise you,
I promise you...
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say.
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be.
And if I had to walk the world, I'd make you fall for me,
I promise you, I promise you I will. I will. I will.

Frou Frou - Breathe In



I read you
And God, I'm good at it
I'm so spot on

Chord shapes in air
Embrace the dissonance
If you dare

And you, Breathing in
Finesse an innocent
From her partying

And I'm high enough from all the waiting
To ride a wave on your inhaling
And I'm high enough from all the waiting
To ride a wave on your inhaling
'Cause I love you, oh
Can't help but love you, oh

What part of "no"
Don't you understand?
I've told you before

To just get
Off my case
This isn't happening
Stop this now

And I
Where was I?
I have to be somewhere
Now where did I put it?

And I'm high enough from all the waiting
To ride a wave on your inhaling
And I'm high enough from all the waiting
To ride a wave on your inhaling
'Cause I love you, oh
Can't help but love you, oh

Is this it?
Is this it?
Is this it?
Yeah
Is this it?
No
Is this it?
Oh
Is this it?
No
Is this it?
No
Is this it?

Yes

Hello, we're back
And we're taking calls
Now what was the question?

And I'm high enough from all the waiting
To ride a wave on your inhaling
And I'm high enough from all the waiting
To ride a wave on your inhaling
And I'm high enough from all the waiting
To ride a wave on your inhaling

Because I love you, oh
Can't help but love you, oh
Because I love you, oh
Can't help but love you, oh
Because I love you, oh
Can't help but love you, oh
