If She Wants Me
Belle and Sebastian

I wrote a letter on a nothing day

I asked someone, ‽Could you send my letter away?”

You are too young to put all of your hopes

In just one envelope


I said goodbye to someone that I love

It's not just me, I tell you it's the both of us

And it was hard like coming off the pill

That you take to stay happy


Someone above has seen me do alright

Someone above is looking with a tender eye

Upon your face, you may think you're alone

But you may think again


If I could do just one near perfect thing I'd be happy

They'd write it on my grave, or when they scattered my ashes

On second thoughts I'd rather hang around

And be there with my best friend if she wants me


And far away somebody read the letter

He condescends to read the words I wrote about him

And if he smiles, it's no more than a genius deserves

For all your curious nerve and your passion


I'm going deaf, you're growing melancholy

Things fall apart, I don't know why we bother at all

But life is good and it's always worth living

At least for a while



If I could do just one near perfect thing I'd be happy

They'd write it on my grave, or when they scattered my ashes

On second thoughts I'd rather hang around

And be there with my best friend if she wants me


If you think to yourself, ‽What should I do now?”

Then take a baton, girl, you better run with it

'Cause there is no point in standing in the past

'Cause it's over and done


I took a book and went into the forest

I climbed the hill, I wanted to look down on you

But all I saw was twenty miles of wilderness

So I went home


If I could do just one near perfect thing I'd be happy

They'd write it on my grave, or when they scattered my ashes

On second thoughts I'd rather hang around

And be there with my best friend if she wants me


If I could do just one near perfect thing I'd be happy

They'd write it on my grave, or when they scattered my ashes

On second thoughts I'd rather hang around

And be there with my best friend if she wants me

She wants me, yeah, she wants me, yeah, if she wants me, yeah
