Renata Songtext
von Glen Hansard

Renata, you have put me down,
Like a toy you no longer need around.

Renata, you have told me ′no',
Like a coin that′s tossed, I don't know where to go.

Am I a fool for hangin' on for you, Renata, like I do?
Am I a fool for hangin′ around? Make up your mind. I′ll be here when you do.

Face into the truth, when you put your back into it, it's gonna startle you.
Face into the truth, what you′re putting out is coming back to you.

Renata, will I understand,
I might not have what it takes to be your man?

Renata, one day you will see,
The simple joy just being around you brought me.

Am I a fool for stickin' ′round for you,
Renata, like I do.

Am I a fool for hangin' on, make up your mind,
I′ll be here when you...

Face into the truth, put your back into it, it looks good on you,
Face into the truth, what you're putting out, it's gonna startle you,
Startle you, oh...


La la la la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la la lo.
Oh.

La la la la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la la lo.

Face into the truth, will you think about it, what else would you do?
Face into the truth, it′s not about giving up, it′s about me and you.

Me and you.
Oh.

Face into the truth, what you're putting out, it′s gonna startle you,
Startle you. Oh.

Face into the truth, put your back into it, it looks good on you,
Good on you. Oh.

La la la la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la la lo.
Yeah.

La la la la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la la la.
