My Morning Jacket
The Way That He Sings (Live)
Why’s it so strange when they say
That the world’s moving upwards?
Why’s it surreal when my hand feels it
Can’t roll the dice?
Why’s it so great just to wake everyday
Alive and by your side?
It’s a mystery, I guess
There’s lots of things I can’t find
It’s not the way that you cook
But your move that catches my eye
Why’s it so soft when the cannons
Unload on the others?
Why’re we so loud when we say
It won’t happen to us?
Why does my mind blow to bits
Every time they play that song?
It’s just the way that he sings
Not the words that he says or the band
I’m in love with this soul
It’s a meaning that I understand
