[00:00.48]Elbow - Starlings
[01:44.57]How dare the premier
[01:46.20]ignore my invitations?
[01:47.91]
[01:49.10]He'll have to go.
[01:52.79]So to the bunchy luncheons
[01:54.72]
[01:56.03]with the second on my list of things to do.
[01:58.85]
[02:02.72]At the top you're stopping by your place of work
[02:06.03]and acting like I haven't dreamed of you and I
[02:09.59]and marriage in an orange grove.
[02:11.17]
[02:12.66]You are the only thing in any room you're ever in
[02:16.91]I'm stubborn, selfish, and too old.
[02:19.42]
[02:40.16]I sat you down and told you how the truest love
[02:43.28]that's ever found is for oneself.
[02:46.04]
[02:49.40]You pulled apart my theory with a weary
[02:51.85]
[02:52.47]and disinterested sigh
[02:53.59]
[02:58.41]So yes i guess i'm asking you to back a horse
[03:02.10]that's good for glue and nothing else
[03:03.47]
[03:04.10]But find a man that's truer than,
[03:07.28]find a man that needs you more than I.
[03:10.85]
[03:17.22]Sit with me a while and let me listen to you
[03:21.16]talk about your dreams and obsessions
[03:23.78]I'll be quite and confessional
[03:25.77]
[03:26.46]The violence explode inside me
[03:28.90]when i meet your eyes
[03:30.40]Then I'm spinning and diving
[03:32.71]like a cloud of starlings.
[03:35.50]
[03:47.70]Darling is this love?
[03:49.20]
