Marathon Not A Sprint lyrics - Camera Obscura

Honey you were good for me but I can't deny my need to be free grows 
I resigned myself to climb the stairs to your 
winning thighs and endless prayers alone 
My new-found confidence you hate, everything put down to fate 
Nothing less or more 
It's a marathon and not a sprint 
That's what we said before we quit
Love should grow 
Should boast 

I feel I'm doing time 
With someone not on my side 
A mystery divide 
Brings me close 
To who I love the most 

A friend from the capital came to visit 
Will she comfort me or does she want to gossip 
Who knows? 
I'll take these worries to the park 
I won't come home until after dark 
Noone will know except you of course 
I'll go swimming and ride a bike 
Maybe turn into someone that you'd like 
It's a marathon and not a sprint 
That's what we said before we quit 
Love should grow, should boast
