The Postal Service is one of my favorite groups ever. Here are the lyrics from one of my favorite songs:
Clark Gable lyrics
I was waiting for a cross-town train in the
london underground when it struck me
that I’ve been waiting since birth to find a
love that would look and sound like a movie
so I changed my plans I rented a camera and
a van and then I called you
“I need you to pretend that we are in love
again.” and you agreed to
I want so badly to believe that “there is truth,
that love is real”
and I want life in every word to the extent
that it’s absurd
I greased the lens and framed the shot using
a friend as my stand-in
the script it called for rain but it was clear
that day so we faked it
the marker snapped and I yelled “quiet on
the set” and then called “action!”
and I kissed you in a style clark gable would
have admired (i thought it classic)
I want so badly to believe that “there is truth,
that love is real”
and I want life in every word to the extent
that it’s absurd
i know you’re wise beyond your years, but
do you ever get the feeling
that your perfect verse is just a lie
you tell yourself to help you get by
That cover is pretty good.
Thanks Taylor! I'll check that song out. Thanks for the tip!
Yes the Postal Service def rock. Have you heard their cover of Phil Collin's Against All Odds? It's pretty good. (IM me if you cant find it)
