BELLE & SEBASTIAN LYRICS - Jonathan David

"Jonathan David"



I know you like her

Well I like her too

I know she likes you

It's not as if I'm being sent off to War

There are worse things in this world



There's still room on my wooden horse for two

I was Jonathan to your David

You're still King



Well, I'd thought about her

I dreamed she'd come, I'd make my escape

I thought she liked me but somehow I was wrong

I know you don't want it this way

But it's O. K.



It's not like we'll be parted

It's not like we never know love



And she'll smile for you

She'll hold your hand

You'll be in love there's no other way

And I will make it some day



I know you like her

Well I like her too

I know she likes you

It's not as if I'm being sent off to War

There are worse things in this world



There's still room on my wooden horse for two

I was Jonathan to your David

You're still King



Visions of love recollected

Have we ever been true?

I know that I have, it's time for you to go

It's all in the stones that you throw

I want you to know



It's not like we'll be parted

It's not like we never know love



And she'll smile for you

She'll hold your hand

You'll be in love there's no other way



People say that

"We'll never change"

"We'll never change"

But I have



You and her in the local newspaper

You will be Married and you'll be gone



Married and you'll be gone
