Yeasayer – Uma lyrics
[Verse 1]
And in our overlapping lives
30 years on either side
Never thought I'd be surprised
That I'm alive when you're alive
When I stare into your eyes
My reflection falls aside
Can't always get you to stop crying
But we both know you'll be fine
[Chorus]
Uma, Uma
Let out a little sigh
To let me know you're mine
Uma
[Verse 2]
Try not to make the old mistake
Tell you I love you every day
Find your own way to rebel
And you can laught at yourself
When our thoughts really connect
I know you need my sound effects
Hope I still can make you smile
When I get to be senile
[Chorus 2]
Uma, Uma
Let out a little sigh
To let me know you're mine
[Bridge]
Hope I don't pass down all my flaws
To Uma
I hear my frustration
In your calls
I'm here to break your fall
I'll miss you when you're grown up
Uma
Uma
[SuperChorus]
Uma, Uma
[x3]
Uma, Uma
And in our overlapping lives
30 years on either side
Never thought I'd be surprised
That I'm alive when you're alive
When I stare into your eyes
My reflection falls aside
Can't always get you to stop crying
But we both know you'll be fine
[Chorus]
Uma, Uma
Let out a little sigh
To let me know you're mine
Uma
[Verse 2]
Try not to make the old mistake
Tell you I love you every day
Find your own way to rebel
And you can laught at yourself
When our thoughts really connect
I know you need my sound effects
Hope I still can make you smile
When I get to be senile
[Chorus 2]
Uma, Uma
Let out a little sigh
To let me know you're mine
[Bridge]
Hope I don't pass down all my flaws
To Uma
I hear my frustration
In your calls
I'm here to break your fall
I'll miss you when you're grown up
Uma
Uma
[SuperChorus]
Uma, Uma
[x3]
Uma, Uma
