The National - Born to Beg lyrics

Crushed on the train
We'd stand by the window
We sweat through the hot parts of June
We hugged it out and ducked it on purpose
Nothing else I needed to do

I was born, oh to beg for you

Later that year in the back of the Warsaw
I thought you and I might be okay
Spinning and quiet, you leaned in against me
Said, "I'm gonna have it all someday"

I was born, oh to beg for you
I was born, oh to beg for you

I'd cry, crawl, I'd do it all
Teakettle love, I'd do anything
I'd cry, crawl, I'd do it all
Teakettle love, I'd do anything

New York is older and
Changing it's skin again
It dies every ten years
And then it begins again
If your heart was in it, I'd stay a minute
I'm dying to be taken apart

I was born, oh to beg for you
I was born, oh to beg for you

I'd cry, crawl, I'd do it all
Teakettle love, I'd do anything
I'd cry, crawl, I'd do it all
Teakettle love, I'd do anything
