Elliott Smith - Antonio Carlos Jobim (Heatmiser cover) lyrics

Why are you here Couldn't you tell him Were you afraid he'd hear You should have been thankful to be alone You took off your shoes Said anything further would be bad news Because you'd already started to disappear And he couldn't complain Just looked at your lyric and crossed over to play A record of quiet instrumentals And I like what you wrote This is a record full of sour notes You should've been thankful to be alone And I like what you wrote But don't say you mean it when you know you don't You should have been thankful to be alone, you know You should have been thankful to be alone, you know You should have been thankful to be alone
