Fleet Foxes - So Long to the Headstrong lyrics

[Fleet Foxes - So Long to the Headstrong lyrics]

This morning I received airmail letter three
From my connection overseas
I pulled the paper back
You begin your attack and it reads:

"Of all the places I laid down my
Head I think of two I regret"
Love isn’t easy my baby you’re saying today

But tell Mr shoemaker I’ll be away
On a rocket or a comet or the dock of the bay
On a continental steamship sailin' away
On a one way ticket on a first class airplane
I want to know what you’re thinking about
Don’t just let me go

Four hundred days have passed since
I heard from you last
I’m getting worried, I admit
Maybe it’s nothing much
Business and chores and such
Oh, I just don’t know

Of all the places I laid down my head
I think of two I regret
Love isn’t easy my baby will tell you today

But tell Mr shoemaker I’ll be away
On a rocket or a comet or the dock of the bay
On a continental steamship sailin' away
On a one way ticket on a first class airplane
I want to know what you’re thinking about
Don’t just let me go

I’m saying so long i want my baby back
I know it’s hard to see
Why she’s in love with me i’m sayin' so long
I want my baby back i know it’s hard to see
Why she’s in love with me

So long to the headstrong
I wasn’t qualified to lead that city life
That’s all I have to say
