Swans Lyrics - My Maudlin Career - Camera Obscura

There's flowers in my house 

And I bought them myself 

No surprises in the record collection 

You must have thought I was someone else 

I'm still afraid to get lost 

In a city I might explore 

But I'm not afraid to have 

An eloquent boy at my door 

At my door 

At my door 

At my door 

Oh you want to be a writer 

Fantastic idea 

You say you've never seen Alaska () 

I really think you'll like it there 

Maybe you should travel with me 

Is this the best idea 

Because you've never seen a red wood 

And you've never dodged a deer 

A deer 

A deer 

A dear 

A deer 

A deer 

My dear 

One swan is deceiving us all 

Oh I for one should know 

I never felt myself so graceful 

And I never swam so slow 

So slow 

So slow 

So slow
