Soul Meets Body - Death Cab for Cutie

Soul Meets Body

I want to live where soul meets body
And let the sun wrap its arms around me
And bathe my skin in water cool and cleansing
And feel, feel what it's like to be new

Cause in my head there's a greyhound station
Where I send my thoughts to far off destinations
So they may have a chance of finding a place
Where they're far more suited than here

I cannot guess what we'll discover
We turn the dirt with our palms cupped like shovels
But I know our filthy hand can wash one another's
And not one speck will remain

I do believe it's true
That there are roads left in both of our shoes
If the silence takes you
Then I hope it takes me too
So brown eyes I hold you near
Cause you're the only song I want to hear
A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere

Where soul meets body
Where soul meets body
Where soul meets body

I do believe it's true
That there are roads left in both of our shoes
If the silence takes you
Then I hope it takes me too
So brown eyes I hold you near
Cause you're the only song I want to hear

A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere...

- Death Cab for Cutie

...How interesting, I just now noticed, as I really paid attention to the song to figure out which lines were my favorites, its odd structure: three verses together, then a couple repetitions of the chorus at  the end.

I agree, I really like this song - the beat and flow and lyrics. V. amazing. And I'll look up Title and Registration on iTunes...but could you possibly email it to me? *hopeful eyes*

Not sure I actually have it at the moment, but I will try to find it for you. Even if it means taking it from my roommate.
