Magnolia Melancholia

VERSE Nice to meet you boy, I know your momma knows, I fell in love with her, seven thousand summers ago, I was a runner kid, a too much too heartily kid, Your momma helped me out, and now, here to pay the due back, though. Nice to meet you boy, I knew your momma's song I knew how she would move along to every rhythm I know she'll do her best for you, she wants to get the rest of you, Now here to take care of you, whatever you need to come on through, Instrumental VERSE Sad, juiced up, loose cannon fodder, We used to be happily, savagery, fell rapidly into love telepathy, I must admit, before I slipped, your mother knew the best of me. Mad, clued up, we were not lovers, Band of brothers, sister, easy company, Didn't tell me she was sick until she wrote to me, Then out the blue, the years we knew they all come flooding back to me, Magnolia melan-call-it-love, magnolia melancholia, Magnolia melan-call-it-love, magnolia melancholia, VERSE Like how she smiled and how I cried and how I finally felt, Like how I lied and how we died, inside the Chelsea Hotel, Could tell that when she told me I had never had a broken heart, Well I was mad, I said a couple of things I shouldn't of, We didn't talk for years, it's clear to me I was ostracised, Threw me out a heart, a head, a soul, a whole damn life, I'm sittin' on the other side of London penance for shit, Guess it's all just hurt too much for her to deal with it, Nice to meet you boy, I know your momma knows, I fell in love with her, seven thousand summers ago, I was a runner kid, a too much too heartily kid, Your momma helped me out, and now, here to pay the due back, though, Nice to meet you boy, I knew your momma's song I knew how she would move along to every rhythm I know she'll do her best for you, she wants to get the rest of you, Now here to take care of you, whatever you need to come on through, BRIDGE This is just a story I tell, she's alive and well, Somewhere in the city swell, I guess I just miss my friend, As for the broken heart, it grates every time I start, I guess I just miss my friend, that's with a broken heart, it grates every time I start, I guess I just miss my friend, that's with a broken heart, it grates every time I start, I guess I just miss my friend, that's with a broken heart, it grates every time I start, Instrumental () X2 End on one strum of
