Mantlepiece Lyrics by Lemoncello

Lemoncello

2018

Pull my cap over my noggin'
To keep my ears from the cold and people talking
It's a cold and blustery evening
And I'd rather stay inside
Stare at the picture on the mantlepiece
The people there don't have a care
Don't need to be anywhere
Ah the frame will let them live in peace
Live in peace
Singing:
'Lalalalala...
Life is sweet'
Wouldn't it be nice if we could lay there
Where the waves meet the rocks in wispy air?
And I'd run my fingers through your hair
And you'd cradle me
But you're up north surrounded in concrete
And I'm lost in a forest of dead leaves
The whole world's moving in tsunami
And we're just pebbles deposited on the beach
Singing:
'Lalalalala...
Life is sweet.'
So I close the door behind me
But I'm dreaming of the picture
And all the colours of the world I could have used
And I've conscripted to the army
Of the everyday
I've stepped on board of this bandwagon
And I can't get off until it stops again
It's gonna take a while before then
So I guess I'll just enjoy the ride
Singing:
'Lalalalala...
Life is sweet.'
