Tom Rosenthal - One Of Those Things Lyrics






Pictures of a face
Descriptions of the day
I don’t know what to say about that

Pictures
Pictures of a face
Descriptions the day
He walked away
It was raining
And this pain in your heart never went
You never said
It would feel this way and I want you to stay
That’s not what I meant to say
But I mean it
I mean it
Yeah right
There’s your honesty
Honestly, I’m feeling fine
Intelligent design
Line of eye-shadow tears and more wine
I don’t mind if I do
Do you like my new shoes
Mums, dads and home truths
Like what are we going to do about you
You used to be such a happy child
You dialed the number
Didn’t speak
How do new lovers meet
Incredible feats
Of bravery
Wavering baby steps favouring
Wild mood swings
We were never not quite on the brink
Not trying to not think
Of missed connections
Missing links
Rose tints
It’s just one of those things

Imagining you
It’s just one of those things we do

Things things
So many things
So much to say
Lonely strings
Catch the bouquet
Hey hey
Here’s your soulmate
Spinning plates
One topples
It’s too late
It breaks
Industrial estates
And a canvas of cannibals of our entwined fates
So let’s find a place
To be complete
Find names we repeat
Find signs in the names of her street
And when you sleep
It’s still there
Always there
In a necklace of amber
Take care
Of your paint and your brushes
You know the way she is
The way she pushes
A greater weight than a lifetime of crushes
Playing back the day’s rushes
Here’s the scene where you see him
And you don’t know what to say
And I don’t know what you say about that

Pictures of a face
I don’t know what to say about that
Descriptions of the day
He walked away

I suppose
Some boys
Spend their whole life joking
Reading lines like karaoke
And opening wounds
Tombs
Visiting unspoken rooms
In the Crowlands
No romance
No shall we dance
Circumstance
Limping men with beers cans
Fortunes old hands
Reading lines of love, life, good times and pretty bad plans
Plots and parades
Every day
Every night
The end was always in sight
And when it ends
It never ends
It descends
Into the centre of the earth
Wish this curse
Could be lifted
Sometimes the world makes me feel like I never existed
And I existed
When she was laughing

Pictures of a face
I don’t know what to say about that
Fortunes old hands
Overrunning the land with you
When you were laughing
When she was laughing

    W.... W....

  12. M.... L....

    Can somebody explain to me what this song means? like, i can feel how sad this song is, but i don't know why it is sad... anybody care to break it down for me?

    M.... L....

    +Marie Lutton the black and white visuals provide a sense of nostalgia that are undoubtedly going to make anyone feel a bit sad. The flute at the beginning is extremely whimsical and yearning, not to mention how the singing makes it all slow down. I personally think that it's all in the lyrics and to me it seems like somebody wanted to say something but didn't do it quickly enough, so they were pushed away and now nothing is left but sadness. It's just one of those things.

    M.... L....

    I feel like this song is about life. Like if you were watching your life like you would watch a speeded up movie on a vhs, and commenting it. That's why it's really nostalgic but happy at the same time (to me) and sometimes very...powerfull, sometimes quiet. (sorry for my bad english kinda explanation, I'm french)

  13. J.... G....

    beautiful....

  14. Z.... P....

    'and i existed when she was laughing' just beautiful

    Z.... P....

    I love this so much. one of my new favorites ❤️

  20. M.... N....

    one of my favorite songs.

  21. S.... G....

    Beautiful.

  22. S.... E....

    I feel empty.

    S.... E....

    We all were separated from something,something which we in need with,for happy and complete life...

  23. m.... ....

    So glad I decided to listen to Tom's "Relatively Unknown Ones" playlist, but so sad that this beautiful song is unknown by anyone.

  24. K.... C....

    Tom Rosenthal is a man with proper voice. Listen to real music, listen to the real talent!

    E.... M....

    Emīlija Mikalauska Mate, any music is real music, this is great but I listen to metal and rock too and that's real music too. I do find this better than metal and rock though.

  27. E.... M....

    I'm dissapointed with people. How it's possible, that this song has only 171 views? Tom Rosenthal is a great artist, the world needs to know him! I'm listening to each song and I'm so excited , that nowadays I can find such masterpieces!

    E.... M....

    Emīlija Mikalauska I feel the same way
    It's such a sad shame people would more rather listen to meaningless shit than this talent

  28. a.... ....

    How is it possible that I love every single song you sing?
