The sound of settling
by Death Cab For Cutie

I´ve got a hunger
Twisting my stomach into knots
That my tongue was tied off
My brain´s repeating
"if you´ve got an impulse let it out"
But they never make it past my mouth.
Baa bah, this is the sound of settling
Baa bah, baa bah
[x2]
Our youth is fleeting
Old age is just around the bend
And i can´t wait to go grey
And i´ll sit and wonder
Of every love that could´ve been
If i´d only thought of something charming to say.
Baa bah, this is the sound of settling
Baa bah, baa bah
[x4]
I´ve got a hunger twisting my stomach into knots.
Twisting my stomach into knots
That my tongue was tied off
My brain´s repeating
"if you´ve got an impulse let it out"
But they never make it past my mouth.
Baa bah, this is the sound of settling
Baa bah, baa bah
[x2]
Our youth is fleeting
Old age is just around the bend
And i can´t wait to go grey
And i´ll sit and wonder
Of every love that could´ve been
If i´d only thought of something charming to say.
Baa bah, this is the sound of settling
Baa bah, baa bah
[x4]
I´ve got a hunger twisting my stomach into knots.
