[Music From the Baul] Love for Granted

French. And phenomenal! I heart Phoenix. First heard "If I ever feel Better" on Miguel's mixed CD. I then heard "Consolation Prizes" on Rocky's mixed CD for Mau's 18th birthday. And I downloaded a couple of tunes from there. Then I bought their two first albums at Amazon and I think I'm slowly becoming a big fan! I like this song. I've been listening to it a couple of times these past few days.

Love for Granted

These days are gone
Loud enough to hold on
I think about the time we wasted
I think about the years to come
It's getting late and I can't call
It's getting late to face it all
I think about the time we wasted
My loneliness has slowly grown
I told you not to cross the line
& leave me with your love for granted
The letters from your broken heart
I think I might have lost them somewhere

Don't tell me 'bout your lies
Don't tell me 'bout your secrets

My love is easy
You are everything I need
Now your love is gone
I want it safe & guaranteed
Life is such a fine line
Looking at the bright line
I think about the time we wasted
For someday I'll be coming too
Tonight is dying on its own
& now I got your love for granted
It doesn't matter right or wrong
As long as you are hiding somewhere

Don't tell me 'bout your lies
Don't tell me 'bout your secrets

Even though we've said it all
I would never let us fall with you
Hang on to a little chance, you bet I'm in
If it is for better
I would never miss the call, it's true
Hang on to a little chance, you bet I'm in

Their website's pretty nice too! www.wearephoenix.com.
Ironically, the band was in Sydney for a concert last April. Ugh. Why are all the great acts in Sydney... When I'm not effing there?!
