lyrics
Awake/asleep/awake/asleep/awake/asleep/awake
Awake/asleep/awake/asleep/awake/asleep
It's not about what we call 'relationships' or sex,
Or walking hand in hand through the door on the left,
Or the right or through the supermarket,
Picking up parcels, spending days in
Tangled ways and tangled sheets
And a sweaty mess, 'cause there's not much left of you and me,
Only us and we are, well we are just something
‘Cause we came from nothing and we flirted with others
But we're standing here, oh we're standing here
And we sway in the dark, we sway in the dark
And we sway in the dark, we sway in the dark
But where is my heart, babe, where is my heart?
Where is my heart as we sway in this dark?
It's not about houses, or trips overseas,
Or some perfect leather couch, our various degrees
And it's not weddings, but where we're heading
And what we're shedding, oh yes we're shedding all of those
Wasted days and wasted years
That come again and rise again, like lines on the horizon
The sum of our fears
Quelled up from nothing while we were kissing others
And now we just, and now we just...
I don't know if we're gonna make it
But I will try, I will try
