o Matthew Sweet - Farther Down
o Dog's Eye View - Umbrella


Into you so far our words go
so much clearer then you hear
into you goes everything I know
no one else knows how I feel

farther down I'm desperate for you
where you never have to know
farther down I'm still without a clue
just something, something takes my pain away

only chance can change my fortune
so I'm not sure why I try
as if I could swim the ocean
as if you could start to fly

farther down I'm desperate for you
where you never have to know
farther down I'm still without a clue
just something, something takes my pain away
something takes my pain away
something takes my pain away

farther down I'm desperate for you
where you never have to know
farther down I'm still without a clue
just something, something takes my pain away
something takes my pain away
something takes my pain away
something takes my pain away

- Mathew Sweet, "farther down"


Did you like the flowers I sent?
You could've called to thank me,
well you could've called.

I tried to kiss you
on Brooklyn Avenue,
but you got in your car, before I could move.

I've been falling like the rain,
but you've got your umbrella in my way.

Fists and fingers, tongues and teeth.
I want to see you, I'm tired of my dreams;
nights of wishing, I could open my mouth
and when I finally did speak, you were nowhere to be found.

I've been falling like the rain--
you've got your umbrella in my way again

I had the sun in my hands
I had the sun in my hands
'til you said you liked the rain.
I had it all in my hands, I had it all
but I gave it all away.

Did I scare you off, by being honest?
how come we never see the end, 'til it's right there upon us?
If you want, I can go away,
but like the rain, I'll come again some other day.

I've been falling like the rain--
you've got your umbrella in my way again.
One of these days I'm going to come along in the middle of sunshine and be a little sunshower
make you rise up like a flower, and you can be my little daisy, be my daisy

- Dog's Eye View (Peter Stuart), "Umbrella"
