Miranda (feat. Edgelarks)

Oh Miranda how you wish he′d smile that way for you
And that you'd make him laugh the way she always seems to do
Despite his devotion
And all his affection you wonder if she′s too good for you

And on the lawn together you'd lie
And all the clouds scuttle across the sky
And you wonder if you should just
You wonder if you should just let it all pass you by
Oh Miranda, oh how hard, oh how hard you try

And her voice rings out across the room like many bells
And she talks as if she's always known him so very well
And though she′s never held a man
You think maybe she can and the thought gives you hell

And on the lawn together you′d lie
And all the clouds scuttle across the sky
And you wonder if you should just
You wonder if you should just let it all pass you by
Oh Miranda, oh how hard, oh how hard you try

And one afternoon when you're alone she comes to your door
With a face blushed red she asks you if he is home at all
And Miranda in your strife
You grab the kitchen knife and she sinks to the floor

And on the lawn together you′d lie
And all the clouds scuttle across the sky
And you wish that you had just
You wish that you had just let it all pass you by
Oh Miranda, oh how hard, oh how hard you try
