Rex Orange County – THE SHADE Lyrics

 

THE SHADE Lyrics by Rex Orange County

 

I was closing all the blinds just so you could sleep the night through
I was staying by your side, just so I knew you were okay
Then I was opening the door just to see if you would walk through
I started painting all the walls just to see if you liked the shade

I would love just to be, stuck to your side
Not with anybody else, anybody else
It’s enough just to keep us occupied
Please don’t go
I would love just to be stuck to your side
Not with anybody else, anybody else no
It’s enough just to keep us occupied
Please don’t go

You were holding out your hands
Hoping I’d be there to hold too
I went out to Amsterdam
Just so I could give you some space
But I kept opening my door just to see if you would walk through
But now I’m painting all my walls just to see if you like the shade

I would love just to be, stuck to your side
Not with anybody else, anybody else
It’s enough just to keep us occupied
Please don’t go
I would love just to be stuck to your side
Not with anybody else, anybody else no
It’s enough just to keep us occupied
Please don’t go

(Not with anybody else, anybody else)
(Please don’t go)
(Not with anybody else, anybody else no)
(Please don’t go)
