Olly Alexander
If You Could Speak
[Verse 1 - Hannah]
I got out of bed and came here for adventure
I stepped on a stone on the way
I took off my shoe and a dog came towards me
Wagging his tail happily
[Chorus - Emily]
Dog if you could speak
You'd know what to do
Simply turn around and run
Dog if you could speak you'd bury a bone
And you'd show me the way back home
[Verse 2 - Hannah]
I got out of bed and put on my sunsuit
Blue checky shirt and a dress
But nothing was left for a girl in pajamas
No breakfast, no diamonds, no cake
[Chorus - Emily]
Girl if you could speak
You'd know what to do
Age has left a gift with you
Rent a cheap second hand crystal ball
I will trust my future to you
[Verse 3 - Olly]
Got out of bed
When the springs wouldn't have me
They fired me up like a gun
Fell into my suit
And I walked down to breakfast
Green leaves and blue sky and sun
[Chorus - Emily]
Boy if you could speak
You'd know what to do
You sit and let the world go round
Remember all you saw
And tell it back in the stories
When the day is almost done
Remember all you saw
And tell it back in the stories
When the day is almost done
