What Could I Tell You Lyrics - Hawksley Workman

what could i tell you 

that wouldn't just scare you 

what could i tell you 

that wouldn't send you packing 

'cause nothing would be good enough for me 

nothing would be good enough for me 

last night i dragged out 

all the old pictures, 

hung up the crutches 

and drew up the pages 

and let a new world fascinate 

and a simple structure radiate 

and all that's left to tailgate 

behind me is the new world 

what could i tell you 

that just wouldn't tear you 

apart from all the movement 

at night there is no movement 

i passed on the papers 

i snuffed out the candles 

i jumped on a steam train 

i lied to a lover 

and let a new world fascinate 

and a simple structure radiate 

and all that's left to tailgate 

behind me is the new world 

but maybe if i told you slowly 

that we are on our own 

that we are the same 

two falling now 

it two falling far 

nothing would be good enough for me 

nothing would be good enough 

and let a new world fascinate 

and a simple structure radiate 

and all that's left to tailgate 

behind me is the new world
