How Could I - THAO, Thao & The Get Down Stay Down

I was racing to your bedside

On, with no delay

How was I so far from you and why was I away

You know you’d always say to me

You know I don’t need a thing

You know you’d always say to me

You know I don’t need a thing

I was singing to the strangers late into the night

I’ll be singing to the strangers til the end of time

I know it can give so much

I know it takes everything

I know it can give so much

I know it takes everything

Are you relieved

Are you revived

Rid of sacrifice

Tell me a lifetime of love

And what did love provide

Celebrate your life only upon the day you die

We come from people who come from people who don’t mind

I don’t want to be so disappointing

I don’t want to be so disappointing

I know I should have stayed right there

Your girl

Just by your side

And when you opened those eyes

I know they should have landed on mine

I don’t want to be so disappointing

I don’t want to be so disappointing

I was racing to your bedside

On, with no delay

How was I so far from you and why was I away

You know you’d always say to me

You know I don’t need a thing

You know you’d always say to me

You know I don’t need a thing

I don’t want to be so disappointing

I just gotta see you once before you go

Oh no

How could I
