thoughtfulness

misinterpreted lyrics
from forever ago, but it somehow keeps coming up:
"we share our mother's health" (ratatat remix) by the knife

say you like it
say you need it
looking better
shining brighter
2x

please stay with me
high pursuits maybe
you know what i feel
end me so waste me
4x

we came down from the north
new hands and we touched
red wine food for free
a possibility
we shared our mother's health
we ditch what we can get
what's in it for me
fine then i'll agree

say you like it
say you need it
looking better
shining brighter
2x

please stay with me
high pursuits maybe
you know what i feel
end me so waste me
4x

we came down from the north
new hands and we touched
we shared our mother's health
we ditch what we can get
4x
...

i stand corrected:

say you like it
say you need it
looking better
shining brighter
2x

trees there will be
apples fruits maybe
you know what i fear
the end is always near
4x

we came down from the north
blue hands and a torch
red wine and food for free
a possibility
we share our mothers' health
it is what we've been dealt
what's in it for me?
fine
then I'll agree

say you like it
say you need it
looking better
shining brighter
2x

trees there will be
apples fruits maybe
you know what i fear
the end is always near
4x

we came down from the north
blue hands and a torch
we share our mothers' health
it is what we've been dealt
4x
...

and in the end does it really matter? the original song is:

we came down from the north
blue hands and a torch
red wine and food for free
a possibility
we share our mothers' health
it is what we've been dealt
what's in it for me?
fine
then i'll agree

trees there will be
apples, fruits maybe
you know what I fear
the end is always near
2x

say you like it
say you need it
when you don't
looking better
shining brighter
than you do
2x

(repeat the 'say you like it' sequence with the 'trees there will be' sequence until end...)
...

has something the remix doesn't in the lyrics.
