Lesser Oceans - Fences

She asked, 'How's Seattle?'

In some motherly talk

«It's okay, it’s mostly grey»

I think I’m just leveling off

And sometimes I think I’m running around

Like a dog with no song

No song

And I’m following some flickering lamp

In the fog, the fog

I know, I know, that I’m getting older

I don’t think they really like me

If I could just stay a little longer

They might be giving up new greys

Think back, to the time we drove

To Park Slope for a walk

It’s okay, it’s far away

I just think I’m measuring ours (just think I’m measuring ours)

And sometimes I think you’re writing this down

For the songs, the songs, the songs

And it’s something that you don’t really feel

But it’s ours, it’s ours, it’s ours

I know, I know, that I’m getting older

I don’t think they really like me

If I could just stay a little longer

They might be giving up new greys

Bah, bah, bah, bah

I’m getting old

Bah, bah, bah, bah

I’m getting older

Bah, bah, bah, bah

It’s getting cold

Bah, bah, bah, bah

Upon your shoulders

Bah, bah, bah, bah

I know, I know, that I’m getting older

I don’t think they really like me

If I could just stay a little longer

They might be giving up new greys

I know, I know, that I’m getting older

I don’t think they really like me

If I could just stay a little longer

They might be giving up new greys

I know, I know, that I’m getting older

I don’t think they really like me

If I could just stay a little longer

They might be giving up new greys
