You've applied the pressure To have me crystallized And you've got the faith That I could bring paradise
I'll forgive and forget Before I'm paralyzed Do I have to keep up the pace To keep you satisfied?
Things have gotten closer to the sun And I've done things in small doses So don't think that I'm pushing you away When you're the one that I've kept closest
You don't move slow Taking steps in my directions The sound resounds echo Does it lessen your affection? No
You say I'm foolish For pushing this aside But burn down our home [ The Xx Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ] I won't leave alive
Glaciers have melted to the sea I wish the tide would take me over I've been down on my knees And you just keep on getting closer
Glaciers have melted to the sea (Things have gotten closer to the sun) I wish the tide would take me over (And I've done things in small doses)
I've been down onto my knees (So don't think that I'm pushing you away) And you just keep on getting closer (When you're the one that I've kept closest)
