I Went to the Store One Day Lyrics by Father John Misty

I Love You, Honeybear

2015

[Verse 1]
We met in a parking lot
I was buying coffee and cigarettes
Firewood and bad wine long since gone
But I'm still drunk and hot
Wide awake and breathing hard
Now, in just one year's time, I've become jealous
Rail-thin, prone to paranoia when I'm stoned
If this isn't true love, someone oughta put me in a home
Say, do you wanna get married?
And put an end to our endless progressive tendency to scorn
Provincial concepts like your dowry and your Daddy's farm
For love to find us of all people
I never thought it'd be so simple
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Let's buy a plantation house and let the yard grow wild
Until we don't need the signs that say, "Keep out"
I've got some money left and it's cheaper in the South
I need someone I can trust
To protect me from our seven daughters when my body says "enough"
Don't let me die in a hospital
I'll save the big one for the last time we make love
Insert here
A sentiment re: our golden years
All 'cause I went to the store one day
"I've seen you around, what's your name?"
