Fair

[00:16.92] It's what my heart just yearns to say

[00:18.68] In ways that can't be said

[00:21.74] It's what my rotting bones will sing

[00:23.50] When the rest of me is dead

[00:24.26] It's what's engraved upon my heart

[00:26.55] In letters deeply worn

[00:28.58] Today, I somehow understand the reason I was born

[00:32.86] 'Cause outwardly he says, "I try so hard to make you laugh at me"

[00:37.41] And she, she does, she laughs

[00:39.93] As though she's not heard the joke ten thousand times before

[00:43.70] And he adores her

[00:44.96] He watches her get dressed as though she's hurtling through time

[00:49.73] Oh, darling, please be mine

[00:52.00] She promises to fight them all when it all becomes too much

[00:57.28] And he, he curses at the world

[00:59.55] For leaving him behind, and he's falling out of touch

[01:03.07] And she is stronger than he's ever been, he knows

[01:06.59] She brushes her hand through his hair

[01:10.10] He's got so much fucking hair

[01:11.86] And he holds her close, just to keep the world at bay

[01:18.40] And when they're sure no one can hear them

[01:25.96] She'll turn to him to say, she'll turn to him and say

[01:31.75] "It's not fair, it's not fair how much I love you

[01:38.56] It's not fair, 'cause you make me laugh

[01:44.88] When I'm actually really fucking cross at you for something"

[01:49.17] And he'll say

[01:51.97] "Oh, how, oh, how unreasonable

[01:58.02] How unreasonably in love I am with everything you do

[02:05.33] I'll spend my days so close to you

[02:09.86] 'Cause if I'm standing here, maybe everyone will think I'm alright"

[02:14.68] "I've seen enough, " he says, "I know exactly what I want"

[02:26.56] And it's this life that we've created

[02:29.36] Inundated with the fated thought of you

[02:33.15] And if you asked me to, if you asked me, I would lose it all

[02:37.17] Like petals in a storm

[02:39.18] 'Cause, darling, I was born to press my head

[02:42.97] Between your shoulder blades at night when light is fading

[02:46.74] Just to let you know, I'm old, waylaid and feels like I am wading

[02:51.26] Into carpet burns and carousels

[02:54.53] Christ, you'll be the death of me

[02:56.81] And calm throughout his melodrama

[02:59.58] She will turn and say, "Dear heart, it's me, it's me

[03:03.60] You don't need to pretend to be someone you're not

[03:07.39] 'Cause it's not like I've never heard you fart and snore

[03:11.41] And for some godforsaken reason

[03:13.93] I'm still here, love, like I've always been before

[03:22.75] And he'll say

[03:23.25] "It's not fair, it's not fair how much I love you"

[03:31.94] It's not fair, 'cause you make me weep

[03:34.45] When I'm just tryna watch The Office with my yoghurt"

[03:38.98] And she'll say

[03:41.75] "Oh, how, oh, how unreasonable

[03:47.30] How unreasonably in love I am with everything you do

[03:51.84] I'll spend my days so close to you

[03:57.42] 'Cause if I'm standing here, maybe everyone will think I'm cool"

[04:25.16] "How unfair, how unfair, " they'll sing

[04:38.25] As they dance across the darling rooftop wreck

[04:42.02] He'll trip, and she'll pretend not to have seen

[04:47.08] Burying her head into his chest

[04:50.35] And clinging to the moment, "Where have you been?"

[04:54.13] She'll whisper, "I've waited, oh, so long for you to come"

[05:00.72] And as the stars above them hum and hear them

[05:08.30] He'll turn to her and say, "That's what she said"

[05:14.09] "It's not fair, oh, it's not fair how much I love you

[05:21.66] It's not fair, 'cause you make me ache, you bastard"

[05:27.44] And he'll say

[05:34.50] "Oh, how, oh, how unreasonable

[05:41.29] How unreasonably in love I am with everything you do

[05:47.06] I'll spend my days so close to you

[05:49.57] 'Cause if I'm stood here, then I'm stood here

[05:54.35] And I'll stand here

[05:57.36] I'll stand here with you"
