Lauren came over today and wanted to sing this song. I actually had never listened to this song in my life (I know, *gasp*). So, this afternoon we recorded this and had a lot of fun!
The song originally has 9 parts, split in two as a bookend for the album "wish you were here", totaling 20+ minutes, so I condensed it to the form in this video. I really hope you guys like it!!
This is on the album "Wish You Were Here" by Pink Floyd.

Lyrics:
I'm getting used to the sound of me
All tripped up and fumbling
Picking words from that lovely stream
Of all the things that you mean to me
Cause it hurts
Oh it hurts to like you so much
How to thank the earth for you
The eyes the smile the wisdom too
You're all good things thrown into one
You put the flowers on my tongue that say
Yes I love you this way
And there's so much that I should tell you
And there's so much that you should see
So many "Keep out: heart bound" places
You belong in me
I'm getting used to the sound of you
Volleying back this feeling too
Tasting all the things I wished
Waiting in that lovely kiss with you
Where there's no hiding the truth
And how you treat me like a queen
Like when I said my eyes were swampy green
And I saw you smile and I heard you...
