Local Natives Lemon (feat. Sharon Van Etten)
[Verse 1]
Sour lemon eyes
Staring down the daylight
And the LA River makes you laugh
You say: "why's a gutter got a name like that?"
[Chorus]
You're toweling up your wet hair
I hear your coffee grind
The credits rolling on last night's late night
We're always somewhere between
Leaving and arrived
I just wanna be here at the same time
[Verse 2]
Slouching when you walk
Just like Hillhurst palms
A penny and a lotto ticket to scratch
You win enough to keep you coming back
[Chorus]
A cross above the freeway
Holy neon light
Everybody crawling for their lives
You're watching your reflection
In a TV turned off
How long you gonna pay more than it costs?
[Outro]
Lemon eyes, trying to let the light in
Lemon eyes, all our streets are Violet
Lemon eyes, trying to let the light in
Lemon eyes, all our streets are Violet
