Sim Sala Bim Lyrics - Helplessness Blues - Fleet Foxes

He was so kind, such a gentleman tied to the oceanside 

Lighting a match on the suitcase's latch in the fading of night 

Ruffle the fur of the collie 'neath the table 

Ran out the door through the dark 

Carved out his initials in the bark 

Then the Earth shook, that was all that it took for the dream to break 

All the loose ends would surround me again in the shape of your face 

What makes me love you despite the reservations? 

What do I see in your eyes 

Besides my reflection hanging high? 

Are you off somewhere reciting incantations? 

Sim sala bim on your tongue 

Carving off the hair of someone's young 

Remember when you had me cut your hair? 

Call me Delilah then I wouldn't care
