Song: Among Other Foolish Things - Brian Fallon

Lily, I don't know how to start this letter

I'm writing you from the beach
where I'm living

I got a disco outside of my window
I love all these kids,
but the good times are killing me

I got a picture of you
on the dashboard

So I can feel like
you're watching right over me

I hope someday
you're gonna move to the city
Cause the lights in this town,
they don't brighten up anything

And they say such foolish things,
like Love, love, love,
love is all you need
But everything inside is saying
Danger, baby, love's gonna leave
So I played your sympathy,
have mercy on me
Cause I been hurt, I been stung,
by the good name of love,
'til I threw my own heart in the sea...

Among other foolish things

And I don't mind the nights
and the low light
We spin 'round like records in
the apartment
You still remind
me of Marianne Faithfull
Lookin' like a picture taken outta the '60s

And we say such foolish things,
like 'Love love love,
love is all we need'
But everything inside is saying,
Danger, baby, love's gonna leave
So I played your sympathy,
be patient with me
Cause I been hurt, I been stung,
by the good name of love,
'til I threw my own heart in the sea...

Among other foolish things

And we believe such foolish things,
like 'Love love love,
love is all we need'
And living would be easy
if we never ever had to bleed

And I've taken a dive on
a smoky set of eyes
I been so deceived
and I've been the one lyin'
And there was this one time
when I painted a masterpiece

Among other foolish things
