Lyrics The National

The National

Dark Side of the Gym

The first time I saw you, you were walking out

I wanted to ask if you could stay

But you were on something with your friends around

There was nothing I could say

But I'm gonna keep you in love with me for a while

I'm gonna keep you in love with me

The next time I saw you, you were breaking down

A million years had gone away

Looked right at me, I just turned around

There was still nothing I could say

But I'm gonna keep you in love with me for a while

I'm gonna keep you in love with me

I'm gonna keep you in love with me for a while

I'm gonna keep you in love with me

I have dreams of anonymous castrati

Singing to us from the trees

I have dreams of a first man and a first lady

Singing to us from the sea

So I'm gonna keep you in love with me for a while

I'm gonna keep you in love with me

I'm gonna keep you in love with me for a while

I'm gonna keep you in love with me

I have dreams of anonymous castrati

Singing to us from the trees

I have dreams of a first man and a first lady

Singing to us from the sea
