643. Weight on my shoulders - The Walkmen



Oh I feel dried out from the summer’s light.
As I wander home with spirits high.
If I don’t look so good, pay no mind.

Young girl you know who I am,
took care of all my sins.
I come to you a better man.

Are you calling me, what’s that sound?
All you’re taking up holds me down.

All this weight on my shoulder as I fall to the floor.
All this weight on my shoulder.

You believe me?
I wish you’d say.
As the sun beats through the window pane,
I come from far away.

Say hello to my lonely kiss.
Goodbye to all my sins.
Everything comes down to this.

Oh and I have a story.
I’m under your skin.
Oh and I know the story
as I circle around you again.
As I circle around you again.
