Rilo Kiley - A Man/Me/Then Jim lyric
Ringtone: Send A Man/Me/Then Jim Ringtone to your Cell Phone!
i had one friend in high school recently hung himself with string
his note said if living is the problem, well that's just baffling
and after the wake i waited around to see my ex-first love
and i barely recognized her
but i knew exactly what she was thinking of
we sat quietly in the corner whispering close about loss
and i remembered why i loved her
and i asked her why i drove her off
she said "the slow fade of love
its soft edge might cut you
and our poor friend jim,
well he just lived within
the slow fade of love"
a woman calls my house once a week
she's always selling things
some charity, a phone plan, a subscription to a magazine
and as i turned her down (i always do)
there's something trembling in her voice
i said "hey what troubles you?"
she said "i'm surprised you noticed...
well my husband, he's leaving, and i can't convince him to stay
and he'll take our daughter with him
she wants to go with him anyway
i'm sorry i'm hard to live with,
living is the problem for me
i'm selling people things they don't want
when i don't know what you need"
he said "the slow fate of love
and its mist might choke you
it's my gradual descent into a life i never meant
it's the slow fade of love"
i was driving south of Melrose
as i happened upon my old lover's house
i found myself staring at the closed up door
like the day she threw me out
diana, diana, diana, i would die for you
i'm in love with you completely, i'm afraid that's all i can do
she said "you can sleep upon my doorstep,
you can promise me indifference, jim.
but my mind is made up, and i'll never let you in again"
for the slow fade of love
it might hit you from below
it's your gradual descent into a life you never meant
it's the slow fade of love
it's the slow fade of love
it's the slow fade of love
it's the slow fade of love
baby, it's the slow fade of love
it's the slow fade of love
it's the slow fade of love
it's the slow fade of love
slow fade of love
it's the slow fade of love
