Song For Louis Paroles

On bikes and in foreign bedrooms



We can do a swap forever if you like

Your clarity for my dramatics

And would I have to be asthmatic

That's a price I'd gladly pay



I take you often on the tram with me these days

Put the same song on repeat

They say the themes are often similar with us
We share a lust for noise, the echoes in the din

We share alove of the ecstatic

But you can write about a spastic

I'm just a product of your skill



I swear we've seen the same things

In springtime, Autumn, Winter too

Glowing sparely on a Melbourne day

The bluestone in the dusky dew



So I don't really know how to thank you

But what with little that his is

For best laying my plans down for me

And giving it straight tothe kids



We can do a swap forever if you like

Your clarity for my dramatics

And would I have to be asthmatic

That's a price I'd gladly pay

I swear we've seen the same things

In springtime, Autumn, Winter too

Glowing sparely on a Melbourne day

The bluestone in the dusky dew
