James Yorkston, Nina Persson and The Second Hand Orchestra - The Harmony
You and I, we owned the truthOur whole life, reality
We settle, we promise everything
Here on the outskirts, life suits me
And oh my love, I hope you know, I’ve kept that love, I’ve kept it close
But harmony, it has escaped me, and the world becomes too fast, and if I were a gambling man,
I would not trust it by half, for the world becomes too fast, and I do my best to understand
The paths they became so light, words of love and promises
Distance became every day, and best intentions, they drift away
And Oh my love, I hope you know, I kept that love I kept it close
But harmony, it has escaped me, and the words came out too fast, and if I were a gambling man, I would not trust them by half, for the words came out too fast, and I do my best to understand
We could still have them all, you know
Our quiet hours, our rest at ease
Safety in each other’s arms,
each other’s plans, each other’s dreams
And oh my love, I hope you know, I’ve kept that love, I’ve kept that hope
But harmony, it has escaped me, and the world becomes too fast, and if I were a gambling man,
I would not trust it by half, for the world becomes too fast, and I do my best to understand
