Ticker tape - Elbow[00:00:00]
Stole the papers from a dead man[00:00:31]
And i whistled through the border[00:00:34]
And i waved with real heroes in a ticker tape parade[00:00:37]
Smiled with all my teeth just like my godmother taught me[00:00:44]
Swaddled in their praise[00:00:50]
Forgave myself how i behaved[00:00:52]
And everything i did[00:00:57]
I did for fear of working hard[00:00:58]
And i made it look deliberate and brave[00:01:03]
But someone else's heart now means more to me than mine[00:01:09]
And i swear to keep her safe till in my grave[00:01:15]
To keep her safe till in my grave[00:01:19]
I swear to keep her safe till in my grave[00:01:31]
Tie a woman to the track so you can then effect a rescue[00:01:47]
I detest you no i love you[00:01:53]
Can you see which way is up[00:01:56]
When they feel they understand you must abandon them[00:01:59]
This modus operandum may distress you but will always fill your cup[00:02:04]
And so it was until my love came holding up a mirror[00:02:12]
And i saw a soul that angels wouldn't save[00:02:18]
She showed me how my blackened heart could beat for two[00:02:25]
And how it does[00:02:30]
I swear to keep her safe till in my grave[00:02:31]
To keep her safe till in my grave[00:02:35]
And i swear to keep her safe till in my grave[00:02:47]
