It's too long till I see you again
It's too long to be with you
You know these hands
They don't know what to do
You know these hands
They don't know how to
It's too long till I see you again
It's too long to be with you
You know these hands
They don't know what to do
You know these hands
They don't know how to
How to give me that sweet release
Give me that sweet release
Give me that sweet release
Give me that sweet release
There's too much time
Turning away from you
There's too much time
That I can afford now
You know these hands
They don't know what to do
You know these hands
They don't know how to
How to give me that sweet release
Give me that sweet release
Give me that sweet release
Give me that sweet release
It's too late to love you
It's too late to love you
Too late to love you
Too late to love you
It's too late to love you
You stop looking till you get what you want
It's too late to love you
It's too late to love you
You say it all until you need some now (?)
It's too late to love you
There's too much time
You stop looking till you get what you want
There's too much time
There's too much time
You take it all until you want some love (?)
There's too much time
Give me that sweet release
Give me that sweet release
Give me that sweet release
Give me that sweet release
It's too long till I see you again
It's too long to be with you
You know these hands
They don't know what to do
You know these hands
They don't know how to
How to give me that sweet release
Give me that sweet release
Give me that sweet release
Give me that sweet release
You make it so easy to beg Give me that sweet
release
Then I'll beg you
You make it so easy to beg Give me that sweet
release
Then I'll beg you
There's too much time Give me that sweet release
There's too much time

Watching the days go by isn't half the fun it used to be
When I could reach out from inside the folds of your skin
Watching the sun rush by isn't as half as good now it's all silent ‘round here
Over the memory - the folds of your skin
And I never wanna spend another day, not a single moment from your side
No, I don't even wanna spend another day, not a single moment from your side
Over the memory - the folds of your skin
Over sweet memory - and I can taste no other
Came running from nowhere fast, came stumbling at me through the dark
Breaking right through my skin - and I can taste no other
Came like lightning in my arms, came tearing through the night
Inside the memory - I can taste no other
And I never wanna spend another day, not a single moment from your side
No, I don't even wanna spend another day, not a single moment from your side
Still running forwards and backwards I'm inside and outside your love
And over the memory - I can taste no other
Over sweet memory - I can see no other
Came like lightning through my heart - folds of your skin
Watching the sun ... by - I can taste no other

So many times,
I said that I love them
Looking over my shoulder at the door.
So many times,
I can't live without her.
The wheel kept turning round,
My feeling's changed,
I went my own way.
What can I say
To make you stay?
Cos in my dreams
They smother all over me
And I'm trying to explain.
So many arms
Reach from my memories
Pull all at once.
I'm lost amongst
The folds in their skin.
I did you wrong,
But I'm sorry now.
And I'll show you how.
If you were here now
You couldn't change
You wouldn't understand,
But I'm ready now, I'm ready now.
I'll make you proud I was your man
And sing a song
But it's so ugly now
And I'll show you how.
Cos I'm ready now.
I'm ready now.
I'm ready now.
I'm ready now.
Hey I'm ready now.
Can we start again?
So many times,
I said that I loved them.
I'm ready now.
But I'm ready now.
Can we start again?
So many times
I can't live without her.
The years was more than I could bear.
It's turning round.
But in my dreams
Can we start again?
They smother all over me.
I'm ready now
And I'm trying to explain
Can we start again?
So many arms
Reach from my memory.
The wheels kept turning round.

Watching the days go by
Isnt half the fun it used to be
When I could reach out
From inside the folds of your skin
Watching the sun rush by
Isnt as half as good now
Its all silent round here
Over the memory
The folds of your skin
And I never wanna spend another day
Not a single moment from your side
No, I dont even wanna spend another day
Not a single moment from your side
Over the memory
The folds of your skin
Over sweet memory
And I can taste no other
Came running from nowhere fast
Came stumbling at me through the dark
Breaking right through my skin
And I can taste no other
Came like lightning in my arms
Came tearing through the night
Inside the memory
I can taste no other
And I never wanna spend another day
Not a single moment from your side
No, I dont even wanna spend another day
Not a single moment from your side
Still running forwards and backwards
Im inside and outside your love
And over the memory
I can taste no other
Over sweet memory
I can see no other
Came like lightning through my heart
Folds of your skin
Watching the sun by
I can taste no other

tindersticks / isabella

she fell in love with my singing
She knew the bells started ringing
She thought there was only her there
But, me, I just live for the clapping
A hand delivery of an invite to my premiere
When he fell in love, I was acting
I sent her flowers, asked her to marry me
But all I heard was their clapping
Now she cries with a cigarrette at the window
He croons and moans like he's hurting
She cries so well
He croons and moans, just croons and moans
Now, I never thought [I had no idea] she needed direction
And he was at the mercy of his writers
For the songs I needed [for me] to touch her
Those sad, sad songs to make me happy
Now she cries with a cigarrette at the window
He croons and moans like he's hurting
She cries so well
He croons and moans, just croons and moans
We re-enact the love scenes from her/my movies
But I never thought, but she uses a stand-in
His voice is croakier every day now
And she cries so well
