Maximo Park - Distance Makes lyrics

Distance makes the heart dissolve Like little pills cloud water Dissolving inch by inch Separating a fraction further You helped to shape this space We'd gaze at dancers The view,it fluctuates Flattened bodies Drove on the floor Within a rectangle Of cool green light We'll watch them in the warmth We'll breathe beside each other The stars are landmarks…and we don't use them The stars are landmarks…you can't swing from them I wish this was an endurance test But there are no limits I sent a letter to my own address While you lived in it You used to drink from that gla** Decorated in Scandinavia You nearly ironed me out And now I've changed my behaviour This morning I saw a blue metal star I was on tiptoes high above the backyard Competing with the real thing It ends up dominating The stars are landmarks…and we don't use them The stars are landmarks…you can't swing from them Everyone's got their own idea Of utopia, and why we're here The stars are landmarks…and we don't use them The stars are landmarks…you can't swing from them The stars are landmarks…they have no function
