[00:01.52]The Way I Tend To Be - Frank Turner
[00:22.08]Some mornings I pray for evening,
[00:25.14]For the day to be done.
[00:27.58]Some summer days I hide away
[00:30.45]And pray for rain to come.
[00:33.20]It turns out hell will not be found
[00:36.26]Within the fires below,
[00:38.77]But in making do and muddling through
[00:40.64]
[00:41.71]When you've nowhere else to go.
[00:45.34]But then I remember you,
[00:51.03]And the way you shine like truth in all you do.
[00:56.47]And if you remembered me,
[01:02.03]You could save me from the way I tend to be.
[01:06.90]the way I tend to be.
[01:12.03]
[01:19.09]Some days I wake up dazed my dear,
[01:22.22]And I don't know where I am.
[01:24.78]I've been running now so long I'm scared
[01:27.72]I've forgotten how to stand.
[01:30.28]I stand alone in airport bars
[01:33.22]And gather thoughts to think:
[01:35.65]That if all I had was one long road
[01:38.85]It could drive a man to drink.
[01:42.53]But then I remember you,
[01:47.97]And the way you shine like truth in all you do.
[01:53.53]And if you remembered me,
[01:59.03]You could save me from the way I tend to be
[02:05.34]Because I've said I love you so many times that the words kinda die in my mouth.
[02:10.60]And I meant it each time with each beautiful woman but somehow it never works out.
[02:16.22]You stood apart in my calloused heart, and you taught me and here's what I learned:
[02:21.47]That love is about the changes you make and not just three small words.
[02:28.80]And then I catch myself
[02:35.18]Catching your scent on someone else
[02:39.68]In a crowded space
[02:45.25]And it takes me somewhere I cannot quite place.
[02:50.30]But then I remember you,
[02:56.36]And the way you shine like truth in all you do.
[03:01.73]And if you remembered me,
[03:07.42]You could save me from the way I tend to be
[03:12.36]the way I tend to be
[03:17.42]
[03:23.62]the way I tend to be
[03:29.13]the way I tend to be
