Sao Paulo

de Guillemots

Sit down, my love of open spaces
And greet my love that's all been spent
I'm going to tell you both a story
About some memories that I dreamt

See, I've lost love in many places
Not least the streets of São Paulo
One friend especially I did make there
A tenth floor window took her home

Sometimes I could cry for miles
But I don't

So hush the shadows in the oak tree
Be still, the curlew on the moor
My heart has fallen by the wayside
I cannot claim her anymore

So don your duffle coats quite slowly
And this drab jury shall adjourn
While on the streets of old São Paulo
I watch my baby being burned

Sometimes I could cry for miles
But I don't

Sometimes I could cry nine times
Drop my bags and run for miles
Sometimes I could live nine lives
But I won't, but I won't

Have you ever been thrown across the water?
Have you ever been thrown across the water?
Have you ever been thrown across the water?
'Til there's no skin left on your bones

Thrown across water, thrown across water, thrown across water like a stone
Thrown across water, thrown across water, thrown across water like a stone
Thrown across water, thrown across water, thrown across water like a stone
Thrown across water, thrown across water, thrown across water like a stone

Get me a doctor, get me a doctor, who will get rid of my bones
Get me a lover, get me a lover who will leave my head alone
Get me a soldier, get me a soldier who will fight me a pointless war
Get me an exit, I need an exit, I need a window or a door

Thrown across water, thrown across water, thrown across water like a stone

Get me a lawyer, get me a lawyer who will sue the world for me
Get me a person, get me a person, get me a person who isn't me
'Cause I'm getting tired, I'm getting tired of my stupid little face
I don't belong here, don't belong here, don't belong in this horse race

Thrown across water, thrown across water, thrown across water like a stone
Thrown across water, thrown across water, thrown across water like a stone
