[Verse 1]

You said you're free, for me that says it all

You're free to push me and I'm free to fall

So if we weaken we can call it stress

You've got my trust, I've got your home address

And now the only chance that we could take

Is the chance that someone else won't make it all come true


[Pre-Chorus]

We're making tracks that show our touch and go

And now it's touch and come, and you should know

But then four years won't mean that much to me

When I've been smothered in the sympathy you bleed


[Chorus]

Just close your eyes again

Until these things get better

You're never far away

But we could send letters


[Verse 2]

While you were gone I reached another town

They couldn't help me, but they showed me round

And now I've seen what you can't understand

I'd try to lead you but I'd crush your hand

Because the people in the village know

It doesn't matter where you choose to go, the end's the same


[Pre-Chorus]

I found some blood I wasn't meant to find

I found some feelings that we'd left behind

But then some blood won't mean that much to me

When I've been smothered in the sympathy you bleed


[Chorus]

Just close your eyes again

Until these things get better

You're never far away

But we could send letters


[Guitar Solo]


[Pre-Chorus]

I found some blood I wasn't meant to find

I found some feelings that we'd left behind

But then some blood won't mean that much to me

When I've been smothered in the sympathy you bleed


[Chorus]

Just close your eyes again

Until these things get better

You're never far away

But we could send letters
