Lyrics Benjamin Francis Leftwich – Elephant
Text:
Been a while since I sat you down to talk, elephant
Been a while since I looked you in the eye, elephant
Little time since I let you in the door, elephant
Been a while since you sat me down to cry, elephant
Been a while since December when we walked, elephant
And he fell down in the grass, as I rushed, elephant
Been a while since Amy’s been about, elephant
I just left, without a word, what a joke, elephant
Yeah, they say that we grow from when we’re low, but elephant
Come and play, don’t wanna waste another day, elephant
I know you know, it’s easier to shy away
But I am shook from tired eyes and a tired face
And I know that you know, it’s been easier to medicate
But I know that you won’t go away
Couple years since he learned how to fly, elephant
Hid the tears as I numbed out the time, elephant
Couple moves to the coast then to the town, and back again
Couple worlds that I was in, then I am out, elephant
