40 Days

(album: The Band Of Heathens - 2008)

When I call in the morning
Why don't you reply?
'Cause you know I'd wait till the evening
When the sun has said goodbye

When I'm home in the evening
Won't you please come by
Lay with me for an hour
And watch the stars collide

I've got something inside of me
That just won't settle down
But you've got me on my back
My whole world's spinning around

Forty days and forty nights
Twenty lefts and twenty rights
Fifteen songs and fifteen flowers
Ten more ways to say that I love you

When you're home in the evening
I cannot come by
'Cause I'll be gone till the morning
When the sun is shining high

But I've got something inside me
That just won't settle down
You've got me on my back
My whole world's spinning all around and around

Ten more ways
Ten more ways
Ten more ways
Ten more ways to say that I love you
