    "...Ada, I can hear the sound of your laugh through the wall" This line is so touching and adorable, in my opinion. Matt's wife is a genius.

    This song got me into The National. Its so heart breaking and beautiful. I used to pretty much be in love with a girl called Ada so it feels pretty personal for me too

    I just love how the piano after "Ada, I can hear the sound of your laugh through the walls" sounds like her laughing.
