paroles de chanson Tortoise Regrets Hare (Down the Tiny Steps remix) - James Yorkston

She said "Answer me this Handsome Jack if your hands
Weren't tied would you consider me wise enough to see
Off your fear of heights whether real or imagined or
Whether flight or fancy? I'll teach you all that this
City has taught me, I'll bow you around this city's
Boundaries"

Hare

And I mentioned that I'd seen you in the paper marrying
Some fool you'd slipped a smile into the picture saying
"I am still the same infinite girl that you've all
Known and are there any regrets here aside my own? I
Sleep with your songs running up my arms and curling
Around and keeping me warm"

Tortoise Regrets Hare, Tortoise Regrets Hare, Fox Takes
Hare

Hold on hold on

And I tell you don't sell your love short in my prime I
Was a cruel and cold man but now I am older I present
Myself much warmer, anxious not to lose out on a year
Or two's favour for the sake of my red temper and you
Pressed sea shells in the sand and they spelled out
Your cruel cruel demands
