She & Him Volume 2 Lyrics
1.Thieves

There's thieves among us
Painting the walls
With all kinds of lies, and lies
I never told it all
What's in my pocket?
You never knew
You didn't know me well
So well, as I knew you

And I know, and you know too
That a love like ours is terrible news
But that wont stop me crying
No, that wont stop me crying over you

I'm not a prophet
Old love is in me
New love just seeps right in
And, it makes me guilty
Why do you look like that?
It's not all that bad
I'll see you sometime
Sometimes, lonely isn't sad

And I know, and you know too
That a love like ours is terrible news
But that wont stop me crying
No, that wont stop me crying over you
Ouuuuuuuuu
No, that wont stop me crying over you

We two are makers
Just made this mess
Two broken hearts don't beat
Any less, oh
There's thieves among us
Painting the walls
With all kinds of lies, and lies
I never told it all

And I know, and you Know too
That a love, like ours
Is terrible news
But that wont stop me crying

No, that wont stop me crying over you
Ouuuuuuuuu
No, that wont stop me crying over you
Ouuuuuuuuu
No, that wont stop me crying over you
Youuuuuuuuu
Youuuuuuuuu


2.In The Sun

It's hard to be ignored
When I look at you, you look so bored
My baby, my darling, I've been takin' a beating

Well, all right(Well, all right)
It's okay(It's okay)
We all get the slip sometimes every day
I'll just keep it to myself
In the sun
In the sun

It's hard to take the blame
When I look at you, you're so ashamed
My baby, my darling, I've been thinkin' of leaving

Well, all right(Well, all right)
It's okay(It's okay)
We all get the slip sometimes every day
I'll just keep it to myself
In the sun
In the sun

Well, all right(Well, all right)
It's okay(It's okay)
We all feel ashamed sometimes every day
I'll just keep it to myself
In the sun
In the sun


3.Don't Look Back

Orpheus melted the heart of Persephone, but I never had yours
I followed you back to the end of the path, but I never found
the door
And you can work to save your love
You can bear it from the earth below
You can work, but you can't let go
Oh, oh, but you have to know

Don't look back
All you'll ever get is the dust from the steps before
I don't have to see you every day, but I just want to know
you're there

Quietly took to the dark of the day and the heat of the summer
night
The heat of the breeze was a cell block wall, and when I looked,
you were out of sight
And you can work to save your love
You can bear it from the earth below
You can work, but you can't let go
Oh, oh, but you have to know

Don't look back
All you'll ever get is the dust from the steps before
I don't have to see you every day, but I just want to know
you're there


4.Ridin' In My Car

Remember last summer when we had the chance
To find each other, start makin' romance?
It didn't come off, 'cause you found another
Without one hand of the clock, what good is the other?

And I can't find no true love, oh, baby, it's so hard
And I still think about you every time I'm ridin' in my
car(Ridin' in my car)

So I went to the place where everybody hangs out
To see what everybody was talkin' about
And over in the corner, all alone with you
Was the boy from last summer singin' songs to you

And he can't sing what I can sing, oh, it's so hard
And I still think about you every time I'm ridin' in my
car(Ridin' in my car)

When I'm home alone, I can think of other things to do
But when I'm rollin' in forward motion, I think about only you

It's been a year and a day since I talked to you
I don't know how I made it, but I sure have been blue
Every time I think of what might have been
I jump in my car and start ridin' again

And I can't find no true love, oh, baby, it's so hard
And I still think about you every time I'm ridin' in my
car(Ridin' in my car)

I can't find no ture love, oh, baby, it's so hard
And I still think about you every time I'm ridin' in my
car(Ridin' in my car)


5.Lingering Still

I like to learn things slow
I like learning alot
I like to get it all again and in the end
You know you get what you got
I like to mean what I say
But it don't always come through
'Cause if i say it all again, again, again
It doesn't make it more ture

And the world's like a science
And I'm like a secret
And I saw you lingering still

It's all just news to me
Don't really care if it hurts
'Cause if I knock it I won't know it
Then I know that it will only get worse
He was different at first
But then he won't understand
Because he's never gonna know me
If he doesn't want to just shake my hand

And the world's like a science
And I'm like a secret
And I saw you lingering still, still
I saw you lingering still

And the world's like a science
And I'm like a secret
And I saw you lingering still, still
I saw you lingering still

And the world's like a science
And I'm like a secret
And I saw you lingering still, still
I saw you lingering still


6.Me And You

Well, I'm back in your good graces again
Remember when you told me that I was your only friend?
Well, you've made the best of this life
Where you never knew one day from the next
Dig your heels in, little girl, put 'em to the test

You've got to be kind to yourself
You've got to be kind to yourself

Well, I heard you had the blues again
It seems like all those little things add up in the end
Well, I know that you worry a lot about
Things you can't control
There are so many things we'd like to have
But we just cannot hold

You've got to be kind to yourself
You've got to be kind to yourself


7.Gonna Get Along Without You Now

Uh huh, hmm hmm
Gonna get along without you now
Uh huh, hmm hmm
Gonna get along without you now

You told me I was the neatest thing
You even asked me to wear your ring
You ran around with every girl in town
You didn't even care if it got me down

Uh huh, hmm hmm
Gonna get along without you now
Uh huh, hmm hmm
Gonna get along without you now

Got along without you before I met you
Gonna get along without you now
Gonna find somebody who is twice as cute
'Cause you didn't want me anyhow

You told everybody that we were friends
But this is where our friendship ends
'Cause all of a sudden you even cganged your tune
You haven't been around since way last June

Uh huh, hmm hmm
Gonna get along without you now
Got along without you before I met you
Gonna get along without you now

So long my honey, goodbye my dear
Gonna get along without you now

Uh huh, hmm hmm
Gonna get along without you now
Got along without you before I met you
Gonna get along without you now

So long my honey, goodbye my dear
Gonna get along without you now


8.Home

Lyricist:Zooey Deschanel
Writer(s):M. Ward

California is a great big nation of one
They never knew what they wanted til it was already gone
What do they do with the light in the morning when they wake up
alone?

They just go home, They just go home

Youre the nicest, nicest boy Ive ever met and then
I think about you then I think about you again and again

Why dont we just sit and stare and do nothing?
Nothing at all for a while
I like the way you smile

I could be your state and I could be your nation
It doesnt get better than home, now does it?
Doesnt get better than home, now does it? (x3)

I could be your welcome, I could be your greeter
I could be sweet and I could be sweeter
I want to be where your heart is home (x3)

I want to see you with the light in the morning
Theres never been such a beautiful warning to me, to me
Why dont we just sit and stare and do nothing?
Nothing at all for a while, I like the way you smile

I could be your state and I could be your nation
It doesnt get better than home, now does it?
Doesnt get better than home, now does it? (x3)

I could be your welcome, I could be your greeter
I could be sweet and I could be sweeter
I want to be where your heart is home (x3)

I want to be where your heart is home...


9.I'm Gonna Make It Better

Lyricist:Zooey Deschanel
Writer(s):M. Ward

Looking for a letter Trace it in the Sand
Nothing was lost on the way
I couldn't stay holding your hand

Hours on the sidewalk staring at the sun
Everyone is wasting away wasting the day jumping the gun
I know it all comes full circle
it all comes crashing down on you

Hide in your heart chase it til the morning
Sunlight is lost in your eyes
You never tried facing these things

Walking on a circle taking staking on a stride
Faces are not what they seem
I always dream facing the tide
I know it all comes full circle
It all comes crashing down on you

I'm gonna make it make it better
I'm gonna get the best lock it and swallow the key

I'm gonna make it make it better
I'm gonna get the best lock it and swallow the key

I'm gonna make it make it better
I'm gonna get the best lock it and swallow the key

I'm gonna make it make it better
I'm gonna get the best lock it and swallow the key

I'm gonna make it make it better
I'm gonna get the best lock it and swallow the key


10.Sing

Lyricist:Zooey Deschanel
Writer(s):M. Ward

Talkin' on the phone, and watchin' Cribs
He doesn't know what kinda guy he is.
He's got a gold plated ceiling in the TV show,
A broken heart and he doesn't even know.

He's glad to see you
Yes, he's glad to see you
Open your arms and sing
The world's been waiting, they've been waiting for years
And they've just gotta hear
The kids are all waiting, they've been shedding tears
So open your arms and sing for us

World can be quiet when you're up too late
I'm just a childhood prisoner of a garden gate
If its broke, then kick it, dust yourself off
Find a quiet place and have a good laugh

I'm glad to see you
Yes, I'm glad to see you
Open your arms and sing
The world's been waiting, they've been waiting for years.
The kids are crying, they've been shedding tears
So open your arms and sing for us

Ba da da da dum
Ba da da da dum
Ba da da da dum
Ba da da da dum
Ba da da da dum....


11.Over It Over Again

Lyricist:Zooey Deschanel
Writer(s):M. Ward

Why do I always want to sock it to you hard
Let you know what love is like when
I'm keeping all my cards up on the shelf

Where you can't see them
Why do I always want to keep it to myself
Taking advantage only works when
You're leaving someone else out in the dark
I didn't mean to

Running away from you Is just like running a business and I'm
Keeping up with the games you play Every day
I've gotten over it over and over again
I've gotten over it over and over again

I've gotten sick of it, a lick of it will suck me back in
I've gotten over it over and over again

Running away from you Is just like running a business and I'm
Keeping up with the games you play Every day
I've gotten over it over and over again
I've gotten over it over and over again

I've gotten sick of it, a lick of it will suck me back in
I've gotten over it over and over again

Why do I always want to sock it to you hard
Let you know what love is like when
I'm keeping all my cards up on the shelf
Where you can't see them

Running away from you Is just like running a business and I'm
Keeping up with the games you play Every day
I've gotten over it over and over again
I've gotten over it over and over again

I've gotten sick of it, a lick of it will suck me back in
I've gotten over it over and over again


12.Brand New Shoes

Lyricist:Zooey Deschanel
Writer(s):M. Ward

I had some brand new shoes
They were all red but they gave me the blues
And they're runnin' away, they left me a letter

It's just like you told me it'd be
It's nothin' nothin' nothin'
nothin' at all

We are all made of air
There's stars in my eyes and there's sun in my hair
And I'm runnin' away, it makes me feel better

It's just like you told me it'd be
It's nothin' nothin' nothin'
nothin' at all

When it comes down to this
I'm neither sorry nor cross nor unfit
And I'm runnin' away, there's smoke on my sweater

It's just like you told me it'd be
It's nothin' nothin' nothin'
nothin' at all

I had some brand new shoes
They were all red but they gave me the blues
And they're running away, they left me a letter

It's just like you told me it'd be
It's nothin' nothin' nothin'
nothin' at all

at all, at all.


13.If You Can't Sleep

Lyricist:Zooey Deschanel
Writer(s):M. Ward

If you can't sleep
I'll be there in your dreams
I'll be there in your dreams
If you can't sleep at all

And in your dreams
I'll touch your cheek
And lay my head on your shoulder

Goodbye shadows
Goodbye shadows

You're far away
If you can't see my face
if the world is cold
But the sun shines the same

Shut your eyes
There are bluer skies
For your embrace to my heart

Goodbye shadows
Goodbye shadows

If you can't sleep
I'll be there in your dreams
I'll be there in your dreams
If you can't sleep at all

And in your dreams
I'll touch your cheek
And lay my head on your shoulder
