29 Years - The National

Could you tell the enchantment I said goodbye?

I met a girl named disillusionment

Could you tell her I made the headlines?

Says «boy draws wings on everything»

Could you tell her to check the headlines?

Says «boy burns angels in the river»

You know I dreamed about you

For 29 years before I saw you

You know I dreamed about you

I missed you for 29 years

Birds are flying out of water

Underneath the sky

I run up to the rainbow girl

Just to pass it by

And I’ll never have a change of heart

My swan will never sing

I have no heart, the swan is gone

And now I wear the wings

You know I dreamed about you

For 29 years before I saw you

You know I dreamed about you

I missed you for 29 years

You know I dreamed about you

For 29 years before I saw you

You know I dreamed about you

For 29 years before I saw you
