I Promise You Ezras Demo by Ezra Koenig Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Real calm 'cause you've seen it all
One day though you'll take a fall
Wrong side of McGregor's wall
Suddenly your heart is like a tennis ball
Up and down and side to side
Surf so hard you'd think you'd died
No love for you
Wake up and you feel confused
Slight frown as you read the news
Each day, gotta pick and choose
The same old sides
The me's and you's
But it's alright, you're welcome here
Even certain carnivores are in the clear
I promise you
[Chorus]
Wind blows and heaven knows
That sun can turn to rain
There's nothing much to fear though
Doors close and we all know that love can turn to pain
So let's be each other's heroes
No gate, no wall could ever split us up
Our love's forever
No hate, no fear could ever keep us down
We'll stick together
[Verse 2]
Life's nice on a sunny day
French press and a plate of hay
Some days can't escape the fray
Crazily careening like a bird of prey
This old house is never locked
Even Tiggy Winkers needn't need to knock
I promise you
[Chorus]
[Ending]
We'll stick together (x4)
Real calm 'cause you've seen it all
One day though you'll take a fall
Wrong side of McGregor's wall
Suddenly your heart is like a tennis ball
Up and down and side to side
Surf so hard you'd think you'd died
No love for you
Wake up and you feel confused
Slight frown as you read the news
Each day, gotta pick and choose
The same old sides
The me's and you's
But it's alright, you're welcome here
Even certain carnivores are in the clear
I promise you
[Chorus]
Wind blows and heaven knows
That sun can turn to rain
There's nothing much to fear though
Doors close and we all know that love can turn to pain
So let's be each other's heroes
No gate, no wall could ever split us up
Our love's forever
No hate, no fear could ever keep us down
We'll stick together
[Verse 2]
Life's nice on a sunny day
French press and a plate of hay
Some days can't escape the fray
Crazily careening like a bird of prey
This old house is never locked
Even Tiggy Winkers needn't need to knock
I promise you
[Chorus]
[Ending]
We'll stick together (x4)
