Song Description

"All the things you used to say still sound good to me." Great instrumentation, full band with pedal steel, and soaring harmonies.

Lyrics

It never was something Iâ??d thought of
How on the broken days, Iâ??d get by with what youâ??d say
But now that Iâ??ve stared into the silence
I feel your words coming back to me, like when Iâ??d drown in worry

And you would hold out a phrase like, â??Come lay on me,
And weâ??ll stay the fire downâ??
Well Iâ??ve been struggling along since youâ??ve been gone
And I hear you now
You keep talking of changing, but somehow

CHORUS
All the things you used to say, still sound good to me
All the things you used to say, still sound good to me
You sound good to me

And now I sober my face
In Layer Fountain on Saturn Park
Iâ??m back on a cooling day
While the dogs and you play
But here you are, and all your same colors flow
In that long dress from Mexico, we took forever buying

When you kept pulling away, saying weâ??d do better
If we laid the money down
And he was sold on you, like I was so long, sure that
The words wonâ??t change
Iâ??m still walking the places that weâ??ve been

CHORUS

Youâ??d keep on thinking what you hoped was true
And lose your way when you wanted to
You told me good things are born of time
And I still hold this belief as mine

So would you please just come lay on me
And weâ??ll wear each other out
If thereâ??s a better day to make you fall my way
Then Iâ??ll meet you there
Iâ??m not leaving again now that Iâ??m where
