Featuring: Jane Birkin

[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 took 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 new
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
