Lyrics Shoelaces - Elizabeth & the Catapult

Shoelaces

How can I help you, if I can’t even help myself?
How can I love you, if I can’t tie up myself?
How can I catch you, if I am to take my time;
Stop to enjoy the ride, How can I love you?
How can I trust you, when I don’t even trust my song?
How can follow you, when my shoelaces come undone?
Why would I want to, when I don’t know what it is I want?
I’d be wrong to lead you on, the more I’m wandering;
The more I’m wandering
Lately, when I freeze in place;
I hear the neighbors go on days:
Something like, «…dom-doo-da-do-da-dom…»
Something like, «…there is more to come…»
Something like, «…dom-doo-da-do-da-da-dom…»
Something like, «…we've only just, we’ve only just begun.»
How can I thank you, when I can’t even make my bed?
How can I water you, when my plants are all brown for dead?
And how can I help you, before night falls inside?
My wings are upside down, and my head, oh, is burning
And how can I help you, when my…
And how can I trust you, when I…
And how can I love you, before I’ve learned to sieze the day?
Before I’ve learned to wait?
The wait is everything;
They say waiting is everything…
Ahh-ah-ah…
Lately, when I freeze in place;
The heavy stillness permeates;
And all the colors how they roam;
Do-ah-do-I roam… Do-ah-do-I?
Lately, when I freeze in place;
I hear the neighbors go on days:
Something like, «…dom-doo-da-do-da-dom…»
Something like, «…there is more to come…»
Something like, «…dom-doo-da-do-da-da-dom…»
Something like, «…we've only just, we’ve only just begun.»
Something like, «…dom-doo-da-do-da-dom…»
Something like, «…there is more to come…»
Something like, «…dom-doo-da-do-da-da-dom…»
Something like, «…we've only just;
We’ve only just begun;
we’ve only just begun.»
