Song For No One Lyrics - Miike Snow - Miike Snow

I met you on the palisades 

The sun was spilling kerosene 

And I was feeling wide awake 

Girl, you can be so obscene 

And when you sang a lullaby 

A missionary called your name 

You disappeared and hopped a flight 

For the Serengeti plain 

Tell everyone you know 

Open up the door 

Tell everyone you know 

Open up the door 

When your love has gone 

You carry on 

This is her song 

This is a song for no one 

This is a song for no one 

I think I own a photograph 

That shows her in the freezing rain 

With the Italians on the bank 

They know how to entertain 

A string of pearls behind your hair 

A music box to catch your tears 

Now call your mother in L.A. 

She hasn't heard your voice in years 

Tell everyone you know 

Open up the door 

Tell everyone you know 

Open up the door 

When your love has gone 

You carry on 

This is her song 

This a song for no one (x3) 

When your love has gone 

You carry on 

This is her song 

This a song for no one 

You can jump a ride 

But don't ask why 

And don't close your eyes 

This a song for no one (x3)
