The National - Ada lyrics

Ada, don't talk about reasons why
You don't wanna talk
About reasons why you don't wanna talk
Now that you got everybody you consider sharp
All alone, all together
All together in the dark

Leave it all up in the air
Leave it all up in the air leave it all
Up in the air

Ada, put the sounds of your house in a song
Try to be speechless for a minute
If you think you're gonna faint
Go out in the hallway
Let them all have your neck
Ada, don't stay in the lake too long
It lives alone and it barely knows you
It'll have a nervous breakdown and fall
Into a thousand pieces around you

Stand inside an empty tuxedo with
Grapes in my mouth waiting for Ada
Ada, hold onto yourself by the sleeves
I think everything counts a little
More than we think

Leave it all up in the air
Leave it all up in the air leave it all
Up in the air

Ada ada
Ada ada, I can hear the sound of
Your laugh through the wall

Ada, don't talk about reasons why
You don't wanna talk
About reasons why you don't wanna talk
Now that you got everybody you consider sharp
All alone, all together
All together in the dark

Leave it all up in the air
Leave it all up in the air
Leave it all up in the air

Ada ada
Ada ada, I can hear the sound of
Your laugh through the wall ada
Ada ada
Ada, I've been hoping you
Know your way around
