One for the Books

[Verse: A.C. Newman]
Down, in the cavern of your smile
Where the echo goes on for miles
You give me lip, you gloss right over it
Go, turning the water in her hands
Take on a sea change that you can stand
Turn the tides, wash right over it

Down, in the hallway down the aisles
Where the echo turns on you and smiles
You give me lip, you gloss right over it
(Another lifetime till sunrise)
Down, in the cavern of your smile
Where the echo goes on for miles
You give me lip, you gloss right over it
(Another lifetime till sunrise)

[Chorus: A.C. Newman]
God damn, it’s a lifetime till sunrise
It’s one for the record books
That fell from the shelves
As the earth shook
Another hour till sunrise
It's one for the record books
That fell from the shelves
As the earth shook

[Verse: Sims]
Alright alright, you already said your goodbye
I read it in the lines while you measured my eyes
That’s not honest, project your problems
And that look left more footnotes than Foster Wallace
Yeah yeah I got it, OK I get it
Devil’s in the details, divinity omitted
You play angelic, I play dumb
We play positions that we both safe from
Give it wings, let it fly
Let it live, it’s still a lie
And that don’t mean nothing
Looking at me like I owe you something
And it may be the way we lay with our clothes off
That keeps us at least a touch truthful
But ain’t that the usual, we don’t say much
I draw the shades up while the sun wakes up
I know what’s...

[Verse: A.C. Newman]
Down, in the cavern of your smile
Where the echo goes on for miles
You give me lip, you gloss right over it
(Another lifetime till sunrise)
Go, turning the water in her hands
Take on a sea change that you can stand
Turn the tides, wash right over it
(Wash right over it)

[Chorus: A.C. Newman]
God damn, it’s a lifetime till sunrise
It’s one for the record books
That fell from the shelves
As the earth shook
God damn, another hour till sunrise
It's one for the record books
That fell from the shelves
As the earth shook
