lyrics

Frightened of moving like magnets
it's useless to try and control anything at all

And wide-open spaces echo with jokes that are tasteless
so I'll curl up and sleep in your bottom drawer.

Well it's no use in sitting on words that were written
to float throughout our souls

And the cooks in the kitchen next to where we first admitted
that we love each other lean over porridge bowls.

There's too much to say,
I try and say it anyway,
I love you with all my heart I promise I'm coming home.
So if you'll wait,
I'll blow you kisses everyday.

Riots storm the land, next to snaking traffic jams,
the trick with juggling is to look straight ahead

And some messages stick with us, like 'you should never run with scissors'
and there are things you've told me that I'll never forget.

Breathe in delicious smoke wisps like fingers
curl over our cities as we snooze

So we'll throw apples for cattle, and please don't ever be doubtful,
that if the world came down, I'd come looking for you.

There's too much to say,
I try and say it anyway,
I love you with all my heart I promise I'm coming home.
So if you'll wait,
Soon I'll kiss you everyday.

So we'll throw apples for cattle, and please don't ever be doubtful,
that if the world came down, I'd come looking for you,
if the world came down, I'd come looking for you,
if the world came down, I'd come looking for you.
