Long live the king

2011

I 4 u & u 4 me


You're all made of tattered heel
And you're the only constant on the line
We could go together some
And we could get each other through the night

We are one and we are two
And we are simply wicked to a tee
Never a better thing was said
Than I for you and you were made for me

Well, I heard that your plans were all fouled up
And I heard that you hit the wall
Hit your smarting arms and skinned your knees
Will you drop your sling and stone?
And you can't make it on your own
You see, it's I for you and you were made for me

When you were young your parents said
You act like that, you do it on your own time
So you grew up on crooked bends
So barely there you couldn't walk a straight line
So barely there you couldn't walk a straight line

Well, here we are and where we came and
It's a pretty sticky wicket, isn't it, dear?
A few mis-steps along the way
But I'm really pretty happy to be here

So this is a toast to the old town drunk
To the bums on the Broadway Bridge
Raise a glass to the ones of the Circle K
Will you drop your sling and stone?
You can't make it on your own
You see, it's I for you and you were made for me
You see, it's I for you and you were made for me

Oh, I heard that your plans were all fouled up
And I heard that you hit the wall
Hit your smarting arms and skinned your knees
Will you drop your sling and sword?
You can't make it on your own
You see, it's I for you and you were made for me
You see, it's I for you and you were made for me
And you were made for me
It's I for you and you were made for me

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

The Decemberists are an American indie folk rock band from Portland, Oregon. Formed in 2000 by singer-songwriter Colin Meloy, the band has gained popularity for their epic and narrative sound, often inspired by literary and historical traditions. Besides Meloy, the current members include Chris Funk (multi-instrumentalist), Jenny Conlee (piano, organ), Nate Query (bass) and John Moen (drums). Their musical style is characterized by catchy melodies, poetic lyrics and complex arrangements that blend elements of folk, rock, baroque pop and classical music. Among their most representative songs are "The Crane Wife 3", "O Valencia!" and "Make You Better". Their debut album, "Castaways and Cutouts" (2002), marked the beginning of their rise, followed by successes like "Picaresque" (2005) and "The Hazards of Love" (2009). The Decemberists are considered one of the most influential indie folk bands of recent years, with a devoted fan base and a reputation for their engaging live performances.
