by Jens LekmanNot sure how accurate this is, but it’s too good a song not to be on here.
Capo 4
Intro:
(Piano sample)
(Piano sample)
There’s gotta be someone here tonight
Who can explain to me
How shadows can also shed a light
How they can outshadow (outshadow)
What happened between us
And outline (our shadows)
The burnt ground beneath us
I need to (be explained to)
Over and over
How a broken heart is not the end of the world
‘Cause the end of the world is bigger than love
(Piano sample)
I was in Washington, DC
For the election
When they announced the results
I left the procession (procession)
Content in the world’s direction (direction)
Tried to call you for an estimation (estimation)
Of the distance to the star constellations (constellations)
Or any explanation of
How a broken heart is not the end of the world
‘Cause the end of the world is bigger than love
(Frank Mills piano sample)
And it’s bigger than an iceberg
Than the plume of a geyser
And it’s bigger than the spider
Floating in your cider
And it’s bigger than the stock market
And the loose change in your pocket
And the Flatbush Avenue Target
And their pharmacy department
And it’s bigger than our problems
And our inability to solve them
From Coney Island to Harlem
To the end of the world and back again
A broken heart is not the end of the world
‘Cause the end of the world is bigger than love
