Текст песни Boys and Girls - Jacob Early

Boys and girls
Running through the courtyard
There were sirens in the air
And laughter in the air

Try and try
Running to your island
But I tried my best to leave
But it was just my own relief

Everything gets turned to gray
Every time I look away
Build me up, fold me out
Baby, we can work it out

Everything gets turned to gray
Every time I look away
I said, "I'm tired of falling"
I said, "I'm tired of looking out"

Boys and girls
Running through the courtyard
There were sirens in the air
And laughter in the air

Try and try
Running to your island
But I tried my best to leave
But it was just my own relief

Everything gets turned to gray
Every time I look away
Build me up, fold me out
Baby, we can work it out

Everything gets turned to gray
Every time I look away
I said, "I'm tired of falling"
I said, "I'm tired of looking out"

Why can't we all just settle down?
'Cause we all know that pride's taken over your heart
But let's just look toward the future
But with the rhythm in the songs of ragtime

Everything gets turned to gray
Every time I look away
Build me up, fold me out
Baby, we can work it out

Everything gets turned to gray
Every time I look away
I said, "I'm tired of falling"
I said, "I'm tired of looking out"

Let's just take our time
'Cause we all know how this went last time
And underneath that smile is a crooked little line
With the rhythm in the songs of ragtime
