Lloyd Cole - The Steady Slowing Down of The Heart текст песни

Moonlight shines on you and me

Got the sailors back from the sea

You try sleeping but all that you hear is

The steady slowing down of my heart

Its not that you get lazy

Its not about getting old

Its not that you get up in the morning

Wishing you never woke

The car I drive is built to last

It does not go particularly fast

Im in no great hurry is that caused of the effect of

The steady slowing down of my heart

Its not that I got lazy

Its not about getting old

Cause theres no miracle cure for getting used to someone

And now jimmy spends a fortune because hes down to twice a week

His shrink says a crisis in midlife is only natural well, well, well,

Julie got a facelift you know shes only 33

Jesus, may I give thanks to brigitte bardot

You try sleeping now that all that you hear

Is the steady slowing down of my heart

Its not that I got lazy

Its not that I got old

Its just theres no miracle cure you know

To getting used to someone

The moonlight shines on you and me

Brings the sailors back from the sea

As I lie sleeping down my side

All that you hear is

The steady slowing down of my heart

Its not that you get lazy

Its not about getting old

Its not that you get up in the morning and wish you never woke

But then julie was aroused by jimmys lack of self esteem

The shrink says when a man takes a mistress its often helpful

Well, well, well jimmy asked for heaven she was happy to ablige

His shrink said guess this was a bad year to quit smoking
