Taylor Swift, The National - ​coney island lyrics

Break my soul in two looking for you
But you're right here
If I can't relate to you anymore
Then who am I related to?
And if this is the long haul
How'd we get here so soon?
Did I close my fist
Around something delicate?
Did I shatter you?

And I'm sitting on a bench in Coney Island
Wondering where did my baby go?
The fast times, the bright lights
The merry go
Sorry for not making you my centerfold

Over and over lost again with no surprises
Disappointments, close your eyes
And it gets colder and colder
When the sun goes down

The question pounds my head
What's a lifetime of achievement
If I pushed you to the edge?
But you were too polite to leave me
And do you miss the rogue
Who coaxed you into paradise
And left you there? Will you forgive my soul
When you're too wise to trust me
And too old to care?

'Cause we were like the
Mall before the internet
It was the one place to be the mischief
The gift-wrapped suburban dreams
Sorry for not winning you an arcade ring

Over and over lost again with no surprises
Disappointments, close your eyes
And it gets colder and colder
When the sun goes down

Were you waiting at our old spot
In the tree line by the gold clock
Did I leave you hanging every single day?
Were you standing in the hallway
With a big cake, happy birthday
Did I paint your bluest
Skies the darkest grey? A universe away
And when I got into the accident
The sight that flashed before
Me was your face
But when I walked up to the podium
I think that I forgot to say your name

I'm on a bench in Coney Island
Wondering where did my baby go?
The fast times, the bright lights
The merry go
Sorry for not making you my centerfold

Over and over lost again with no surprises
Disappointments, close your eyes
And it gets colder and colder
When the sun goes down
When the sun goes down
The sight that flashed before
Me was your face when the sun goes down
But I think that I forgot to say your name
Over and over
Sorry for not making you my, making you my
Making you my centerfold
