So Far Around The Bend Lyrics
The National
Lyrics
I know you're a serious lady
Living off a teacup full of cherries
Nobody knows where you are living
Nobody knows where you are
Take a bath and get high through an apple
Wanted to cry but you can't when you're laughing
Nobody knows where you are living
Nobody knows where you are
You're so far around the bend
You're so far around the bend
I'll run through a thousand parties
I'll run through a million bars
Nobody knows where you are living
Nobody knows where you are
You've been humming and I think it's forever
Praying for pavement to get back together
Nobody knows where you are living
Nobody knows where you are
You're so far around the bend
You're so far around the bend
There is no leaving New York
There is no leaving New York
