Kimya Dawson - Tire Swing (Juno Soundtrack)

Tire Swing performed by Kimya Dawson


I took the Polaroid down in my room
I'm pretty sure you have a new girlfriend
it's not as if I don't like you
it just makes me sad whenever I see it
cuz I like to be gone most of the time
and you like to be home most of the time
if I stay in one place I lose my mind
I'm a pretty impossible lady to be with

Joey never met a bike that he didn't wanna ride
and I never met a Toby that I didn't like
Scotty liked all of the books that I recommended
even if he didn't I wouldn't be offended

I had a dream that I had to drive to Madison
to deliver a painting for some silly reason
I took a wrong turn and ended up in Michigan
Paul Baribeau took me to the giant tire swing
gave me a push and he started singing
I sang along while I was swinging
the sound of our voices made us forget everything
that had ever hurt our feelings

Joey never met a bike that he didn't wanna ride
and I never met a Toby that I didn't like
Scotty liked all of the books that I recommended
even if he didn't I wouldn't be offended
wouldn't be offended

now I'm home for less than twenty-four hours
that's hardly time to take a shower
hug my family and take your picture off the wall
check my email write a song and make a few phone calls
before it's time to leave again
I've got one hand on the steering wheel
one waving out the window
if I'm a spinster for the rest of my life
my yarns will keep me warm on cold and lonely nights

Joey never met a bike that he didn't wanna ride
and I never met a Tobey that I didn't like
Scotty liked all of the books that I recommended
even if he didn't I wouldn't be offended........
wouldnt be offended.......even if he didnt i wouldnt be offended

[cybernoob]

all the juno songs make me tear up... i dont know why

[alize]

This is one of those movies I have to see once a year

[kyleflounder]

For some reason this song is dangerously catchy. It randomly pops in my head just like a few songs from this soundtrack, but if this one starts it literally doesn't stop until I listen to it.

[Nagasakevideo]

this soundtrack helps me with panic attacks.

[ajc]

Aww this really takes me back. I used to listen to Kimya Dawson all the time around 2010. I was about 16 and it was a really lonely time in my life but her songs made me feel a little better

[dwalker]

I can't believe this movie came out nearly 10 yrs ago!!! It aged well.

[andreidelosreyes]

2020 is coming. Who's still listening to this song???

[AuburNicz]

i saw this movie for the first time today...and fell In love with it and the song track

[lizardpeople]

"I never met a Toby that I didn't like"

Michael Scott: 😑

[dipsaucerose]

"now im home for less then 24 hours, thats hardly time to take a shower" so true!

[ItAllFadestoBlack]

Does this kind of music really have a genre? I love how I've watched a few different kinds of movies but this is so uniquely its own thing. I love it and it's so memorable.

[brooka.]

No matter what genre you like, im pretty this is one song that EVERYONE likes

[cweepypasta]

the fact that i can’t listen to one song by her w/o crying like a baby

[maddyc]

I literally just rewatched Juno and after listening to the soundtrack want to rewatch it all over again

[madysonbuck]

This will forever be my favorite movie and soundtrack

[Drea]

I love hip hop & rap but this song is my shit

[MrMoney]

When i was depressed i listened to these songs and it really helped me

[terrijane]

I listen to this song while driving my kids to school every morning..they say it calms them down😊❤

[simonalillian]

Makes me wanna see the movie again, i haven't seen it for 5 years

[ikoshima]

If one of my friends got pregnant, I'd download all the Juno soundtracks and follow them around school, playing them.
EVERY DAY.
EVERY
SINGLE
DAY.
