Skittish - Little Things lyrics
[Skittish - Little Things lyrics]
Once there was a castle in the mountains
A couple kids, a comely garden
And a white knight too stout and true
Now where there were stables
There's a screen door
A quarter acre by the airport
And a dried up yard no flowers
Say that you won't go away
Say you love me say you'll stay
Or just take this ring and
By up what you break
'Cause this is the life that we made
With rusted hinges, peeling paint
It may not be perfect, but I love it
And I find diamonds everyday
Mornings this old house is likе a palace
I pack her lunch and Lucy's glasses
And I lеt you sleep as her bus leaves
Boxes and bags packed, you stand
"It's just the little things that
Are breaking me down"
I'll call when I get settled
"It's just the little things that
Are breaking me down"
The upkeep of a fantasy no longer
Has a hold on me
Go, if you must run away
But don't be here when I wake
(If I made a promise
I never said I wouldn't let you down)
Or just take this ring and
By up what you break
(Cause, I can't be your motivation i
Got so much left to do)
This is the life that we made
With rusted hinges and peeling paint
(This is the life that you made
Now it's not meclamped with chains)
And I know it's not perfect
(It once was about me)
And I know I'm not perfect
(Then was about us) now it's about her
(Tell Lucy goodbye, and I'm so sorry)
And I find diamonds everyday
A couple kids, a comely garden
And a white knight too stout and true
Now where there were stables
There's a screen door
A quarter acre by the airport
And a dried up yard no flowers
Say that you won't go away
Say you love me say you'll stay
Or just take this ring and
By up what you break
'Cause this is the life that we made
With rusted hinges, peeling paint
It may not be perfect, but I love it
And I find diamonds everyday
Mornings this old house is likе a palace
I pack her lunch and Lucy's glasses
And I lеt you sleep as her bus leaves
Boxes and bags packed, you stand
"It's just the little things that
Are breaking me down"
I'll call when I get settled
"It's just the little things that
Are breaking me down"
The upkeep of a fantasy no longer
Has a hold on me
Go, if you must run away
But don't be here when I wake
(If I made a promise
I never said I wouldn't let you down)
Or just take this ring and
By up what you break
(Cause, I can't be your motivation i
Got so much left to do)
This is the life that we made
With rusted hinges and peeling paint
(This is the life that you made
Now it's not meclamped with chains)
And I know it's not perfect
(It once was about me)
And I know I'm not perfect
(Then was about us) now it's about her
(Tell Lucy goodbye, and I'm so sorry)
And I find diamonds everyday
