Lyrics White Denim – New Coat

When we met we reminded one another
Of a time we’d never lived in
Forgiving ourselves for being persons
That we’d maybe never been

With my eyelids glued to a roof
I feel much better when there’s little to prove
And with certainty, I tell you you’re hurting me
You say it ain’t always sunny, but you got a new coat
And every song you sing, I’m learning note for note
And I’m certainly right where I wanna be
I say, hey hey darling that’s what I needed to hear
You know it works much better and there’s little to fear
And I hope it’s true, I’ll always be with you
‘Cause I’m certainly right where I wanna be

When all we learned from our mistakes is all we learn
We could get it some way about it maybe
If we hold us like a vice, we could let it be good to forget it
Till it ain’t good to forget it

With my eyelids glued to a roof
I feel much better when there’s little to prove
And with certainty, I tell you you’re hurting me
You say it ain’t always sunny, but you got a new coat
And every song you sing, I’m learning note for note
And I hope it’s true, I’ll always be with you
I say, hey hey darling that’s what I needed to hear
You know it works much better and there’s little to fear
