lyrics

She’s got her mother’s pride but not her strength
and the length she’ll go to win an argument
is long enough but not strong enough for me

there’s no easing into these things
you know the hurt that loss brings

So I, gave myself, to the sure things
the simple and the bored things
And my, wasted wealth, on the bought things
those entertaining mornings when I

Can’t see past the door
where my tie is hung above my trousers balled up on the floor
and she’s, rifling through her drawers
for a pretty little under-thing that’ll make me beg for more
You know she’s got a busy day and I’d really love to stay
but i got shows to stop and pills to pop
so i really must be going babe

Well I’m wasted on fidelity, as i edge upon insanity
but its just beer batter and rhapsody for me
I’ll take lacy covered solace
in the hope that she might promise
all the things that she had mentioned
you can imagine the potential

So I, gave myself, to the sure things
the simple and the bored things
And my, wasted wealth, on the bought things
those entertaining mornings when I
Cant see past the door
where my tie is hung above my trousers balled up on the floor
and she’s, rifling through her drawers
for a pretty little under-thing that’ll make me beg for more
You know she’s got a busy day and I’d really love to stay
but i got shows to stop and rolls to rock
so i really must be going babe

on the bored things, the simple and the sure things
and my, wasted wealth on the bought things
I’ve drowned myself, in the sure thing, the simple and the bored things
and my, wasted wealth on the bought things
Those entertaining mornings with what’s her face
I’ve drowned myself, in the sure things
I’ve drowned myself, in the sure things

Promises
by Floating Points, Pharoah Sanders & The London Symphony Orchestra

supported by 6 fans who also own “Wasted On Fidelity”

Magic in its purest form. I love Floating Points, I love Pharoah Sanders, I love The London Symphony Orchestra. It's a match made in heaven, and the result is absolutely gorgeous. I have loved this record since its release, and realized I don't own it for some reason. So its time to change that. 9.5/10 honestly could become a 10/10 on an indepth vinyl relisten. angrypizza98
