Tim Booth - As Far As I Can See lyrics

I saw you standing there Mono brow, long black hair Dance like Frida Kahlo Your dance was so alone, so alone When you shook Your hips The fire climbed up your spine And spread into your hair For as far as I can see We were carved from the same tree Two lonely refugees Trying hard just to get home One husband and one wife A place to hang one's life Two kids to help us grow In space we're not alone Four walls one lid one home A box to call our own Some stuff to fill the place Five bins to remove the waste For as far as I can see We were carved from the same tree Two lonely refugees Trying hard just to get home For as far as I can tell We were drawn from the same well The same visions the same dreams Hoping for ecstasy Set a mattress on the floor Put Chubb locks on the doors Velvet curtains dimmer lights Wooden floors and walls off-white Log on the fire paintings on the walls Prints of stars and waterfalls Brand new set of global knives Photos of friends and family life For as far as I can see We were carved from the same tree Two lonely refugees Trying hard just to get home For as far as I can tell We were rung from the same bell Mix of minor major chords Full of hope and human flaws Your dance was so alone, so alone And when you shook Your hips The fire climbed up your spine And spread into your hair The fire climbed up your spine And spread into your hair The fire climbed up your spine And spread into your hair
