"David" lyrics - GRIMES

Thinking up stories in my mind to relax, every single night
There are no responsibilities there, everything's alright

[Pre-Chorus:]
Every time I'm down, I dream, I dream of you
It's not worth it, though, forgetting everything I know
I need my old friend sitting next to me
Time is everything, I'm thinking why do you have to be?

[Chorus:]
Where does my heart go when you die
How did that moment pass me by, oh
How can you look so good and feel the way you do
I never knew
Oh, I never knew, oh

Got me dressin' in my Sunday-best; golden spires of light
Hours pass like they are minutes or less, everything is alright

[Pre-Chorus:]
Every time I'm down, I dream, I dream of you
It's not worth it, though, forgetting everything I know
(Was it worth it, though, leaving everything you know?)
I need my friend is sitting next to me
You were everything, I'll help you, why do you have to be?

[Chorus:]
Where does my heart go when you die
How did that moment pass me by, oh
How can you look so good and feel the way you do
I never knew
Oh, I never knew

[Chorus:]
Where does my heart go when you die
How did that moment pass me by, oh
How can you look so good and feel the way you do
I never knew
Oh, I never knew
I never knew
