Red House Painter

Red House Painter - Have You Forgotten lyrics

i can't let you be

cause your beauty won't allow me

wrapped in white sheets

like an angel from a bedtime story

shut out what they say

cause your friends are fucked up anyway

and when they come around

somehow they feel up and you feel down

when we were kids

we hated things our parents did

we listened low

to casey kasem's radio show

that's when friends were nice

to think of them just makes you feel nice

the smell of grass in spring

and october leaves cover everything

have you forgotten how to love yourself?

i can't believe all the good things that you do for me

sat back in a chair

like a princess from a faraway place

nobody's nice

when you're older your heart turns to ice

and shut out what they say

they're too dumb to mean it anyway

when we were kids

we hated things our sisters did

backyard summer pools

and christmases were beautiful

and the sentiment

of coloured mirrored ornaments

and the open drapes

look out on frozen farmhouse landscapes

have you forgotten how to love yourself?
