I didn’t want to be the one to forget I thought of everything I’d never regret A little time with you is all that I get That’s all we need because it’s all we can take
There are so many things that I don’t understand There’s a world within me that I cannot explain Many rooms to explore but the doors look the same I am lost I can’t even remember my name I’ve been for sometime Looking for someone I need to know now Please tell me who I am There are so many things that I don’t understand
One thing I never see the same when your ‘round I don’t believe in him - his lips on ground I wanna take you to that place in the “Roche” But no one gives us any time anymore He ask me once if I’d look in on his dog You made an offer for it then you ran off I got this picture of us kids in my head And all I hear is the last thing that you said ‘I listened to your problems Now listen to mine’ I didn’t want to anymore
And we will never be alone again ’Cause it doesn’t happen every day Kinda counted on you being a friend Can I give it up or give it away Now I thought about what I wanna say But I never really know where to go So I chained myself to a friend ’Cause I know it unlocks like a door It didn’t matter what they wanted to see He thought he saw someone that looked just like me The summer memory that just never dies We worked too long and hard to give it no time He sees right through me it’s so easy with lies Cracks in the road that I would try and disguise He runs his scissor at the seem in the wall He cannot break it down or else he would fall 1000 lonely stars, hiding in the cold Take it, I don’t want to sing anymore ‘I listened to your problems Now listen to mine’ I didn’t want to anymore And we will never be alone again ‘Cause it doesn’t happen every day Kinda counted on you being a friend Can I give it up or give it away Now I thought about what I wanna say But I never really know where to go So I chained myself to a friend ‘Cause I know it unlocks like a door... I don’t understand, don’t get upset, I’m not with you... We’re swimming around, it’s all I do, when I’m with you Julian Casablancas appears courtesy of Rough Trade/RCA Records Songs published by Imagem Music for the world excluding France, Daft Music/Because Music for France, Julian Casablancas Publishing (ASCAP) for North America & Warner/Chappell Music Publishing Limited for Rest of the World

Love Beyond love Come alive Angel Eye Forever watching you and I
Driving this road down to paradise Letting the sunlight into my eyes Our only plan is to improvise And it’s crystal clear That I don’t ever want it to end
If I had my way, I would never leave Keep building these random memories Turning our days into melodies But since I can’t stay
And be doin’ it right Everybody will be dancing When we’re feeling all right Everybody will be dancing tonight
I’ll just keep playing back These fragments of time Everywhere I go These moments will shine
If you do it right Let it go all night Shadows on you break Out into the light
I’ll just keep playing back These fragments of time Everywhere I go These moments will shine
If you lose your way tonight That’s how you know the magic’s right If you lose your way tonight That’s how you know the magic’s right
Familiar faces I’ve never seen Living the gold and the silver dream Making me feel like I’m seventeen And it’s crystal clear That I don’t ever want it to end
