Jonathan David
Belle & Sebastian
Push Barman to Open Old Wounds (2005)

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 in 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 okay



It's not like we'll be parted

It's not like we'll 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



Well, 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 in 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'll 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
