Without Permission
The National
Letra

hope, i just don't know how you could go without permission
cause, well, if you're not there i just don't care for this omission

every moment brings me down, when you're not around
but all i'm asking for is come back for just one day

so, where did you go?
and do you now know how to be happy?
see well it's pretty clear when you're not near me i am unhappy

every moment brings me down, when you're not around
but all i'm asking for is come back for just one day
i'll make it worth the while, just to see your smile
that's all i'm asking for

hope, i've come to know you had to go without permission
cause it was how, how i wore you down
and how i dragged you round my sore ambition

every moment brings me down, when you're not around
but all i'm asking for is come back for just one day
i'll make it worth while, just to see your smile
that's all i'm asking for my dear
