The Simple Story Lyrics

Jane :
The little thoughts came rushing in
While I watched for a sign from him
When all the while was clear as day
That I should go and he should stay

Feist :
I look his love like it was mine
I squeezed the truth until it lied
It took some time for cracks to show
Should I stay or should he go?

Jane :
The simple story that you told me
Is a little different from what you showed me
The simple story, unfurling slowly
Is if you lay down with a dream
You'll wake up lonely

Feist :
The fog will cast a certain shade
So what you see is how what's made
it's mark will show you what to do
When hope pretends it's made you newFeist - The Simple Story - http://motolyrics.com/feist/the-simple-story-lyrics.html
Love lied love lied but I'm the reason
Love lied

Jane :
The simple story that you told me
Is a little different from what you showed me

Feist :
The sky wraps round the mountaintops

Jane :
The watch unwinds until it stops
Some things will always be the way they are

Feist :
And that is how they'll stay

Jane :
The simple story that you told me
Is a little different from what you showed me
The simple story, unfurling slowly
Is if you lay down with a dream
You'll wake up lonely
