I know the reason why you think you gotta leave
Promises of future glory don't make a case for me
I did my best and all the rest is hidden by the clouds
I can't carry you forever, but I can hold you now
I know the reason why you think you gotta leave
Promises of future glory don't make a case for me
I did my best and all the rest is hidden by the clouds
I can't carry you forever, but I can hold you now
[Verse 2: Ezra Koenig]
Leaving on your wedding day, all calm and dressed in white
All I'll keep's the memory of one last crooked night
The pews are getting filled up, the organ's playing loud
I can't carry you forever, but I can hold you now
Alright
[Chorus]
God, yu tekem laef blong mi
Mi mi givim nao long yu
Bak mi giv evride
Blong leftemap nem blong yu
[Verse 3: Danielle Haim]
I know the reason why you think I oughta stay
Funny how you're telling me on my wedding day
Crying in those rumpled sheets like someone's ‘bout to die
You just watch your mouth when talking ‘bout the father of the bride
[Verse 4: Danielle Haim]
Why's your heart grown heavy, boy, when things were feeling light?
Turning this June morning into some dark judgment night
This ain't the end of nothing much, it's just another round
I can't carry you forever, but I can hold you now
[Chorus]
God, yu tekem laef blong mi
Mi mi givim nao long yu
Bak mi giv evride
Blong leftemap nem blong yu
[Outro: Ezra Koenig]
Alright
Ech weess de Grond firwat Dir mengt Dir muss verloossen
Versprécht vun Zukunft Herrlechkeet net e Fall fir mech maachen
Ech hu mäi Bescht an all de Rescht vun de Wolleke verstoppt ass
Ech kann Iech net ëmmer droen, mä ech kann Iech elo Emprise
[Wann 2: Ezra Koenig]
Verloosse op Är Hochzäit Dag, all roueg a wäiss verkleed
Ech All halen d'Erënnerung un eng leschte crooked Nuecht
D'pews sinn agetriichtert Tableau, spillt d'Uergel an d'haart
Ech kann Iech net ëmmer droen, mä ech kann Iech elo Emprise
