2013/08/01: st. vincent - all my stars aligned

st. vincent - all my stars aligned



"
i read the signs, i got all my stars aligned
my amulets, my charms, i set all my false alarms
so i'll be someone who won't be forgotten
i've got a question and you've got the answer

i'll do a dance to make the rain come
smile to keep the sky from falling down, down, down, down
collect the love that i've been given
build a nest for us to sleep in here, you know it's real

i check my palms, the cracks in the sidewalk
my visions and my dreams, i cross all my fingers
that you'll be someone, who won't be forgotten
what was your question? i've got the answer

i'll do a dance to make the rain come
smile to keep the sky from falling down, down, down, down
collect the love that i've been given
build a nest for us to sleep in here, you know it's real

there are no signs and there are no stars aligned
no amulets, not a charm to bring you back to my arms
there's just this human heart
that's built with this human flaw
what was your question? love is the answer

i'll do a dance to make the rain come
smile to keep the sky from falling down, down, down, down
collect the love that i've been given
build a nest for us to sleep in here, you know it's real
