The Magnetic Fields - When You Were My Ba lyrics

And the cigarettes you crashed

Left a trail that I could catch

Like those jet streams in your eyes,

You know you're harder to define

Roll up roll down your sleeves once more

Listen I'm talking to you

These things will never be explained

And the earth spins slower closer with you now

And the toast you made burnt black

Am I so bad on my back?

Like a candle on its side

You know you're harder to define

Roll up roll down your sleeves once more

Listen I'm talking to you

These things will never be explained

And the earth spins slower closer with you now

And you're sitting stoned alone

All your jumped up friends have gone

And they tried to bend your mind

But found you harder to define

Roll up roll down your sleeves once more

Listen I'm talking to you

These things will never be explained

And the earth spins slower closer with you now
