The Walkmen

Good For You's Good For Me

The Walkmen


In the fall the air is dry, 
in the shadow of this town. 
And the sun is shining out 
pushing shadows down the street. 

Cross into the sunny side, 
her and i am barreling out. 
And the leaves are coming down 
coverin' up this muddy ground. 

Good for you is good for me, 
maybe i'll stop by, 
you weren't in the dream i had last night. 

And the sun was shinin', 
never so invitin'. 
Yea the sun was shinin' out 
underneath the dogwood tree. 

Rent is always climbin', 
why don't you move in? 
What the hell we might as well try. 

On some hazy afternoon 
heard a siren in the air, 
high above this city sky, 
over towers, over domes. 

And the sun was shining out 
cast my shadow on the walk. 
Another year is goin round 
in a shadow on this town. 

I dont get some people 
but i dont really try, 
whats good for you is good for me 
for now...
