Lyrics Tour Manager - The National

Alice, do what you can
To get me out of this plan tonight
Maybe you can say I wanted to make it
But I won't get back in time

It's beautiful how you can find a good excuse for anything
None of them are cheap but
How can we keep on covering?

Play it like it's nothin', Alice
Nothin'
Play it like it's nothin', Alice
Nothin'

I don't wanna talk about it
Don't like the way it sounds
Wanna keep it kinda quiet
Gonna try to keep it down

I know you know what I mean
You've seen me here before
Say the bubble left without me
And don't say anymore

Let me know when you're free
I gotta tell you something I believe in
It came to me when I was
Waking up from something I was dreaming

It's beautiful how you can find a good excuse for anything
None of them are ever cheap but
How long can we keep on covering?

Play it like it's nothin', Alice
Nothin'
Play it like it's nothin', Alice
Nothin'

I don't wanna talk about it
Don't like the way it sounds
Wanna keep it kinda quiet
Gonna try to keep it down

I know you know what I mean
You've seen me here before
Say the bubble left without me
And don't say anymore

Play it like it's nothing, Alice
Nothing
Play it like it's nothing, Alice
Nothing
