Penguins - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

I met her smokin' a cigarette in a toilet cubicle

Red dress, tattooed chest, she's beautiful

This ain't the time or place to start a future, but, darlin', I don't care

Broken hearts can find a love to make them whole anywhere

Well, darlin', here we go again

We are only man and woman and we all make mistakes

"Don't you know we're only human?", is what I heard you say

And when I heard those words, I knew them, oh, I could feel your pain

'Cause I have felt the same, no

Oh, she said we are penguins on the ice

We're not meant to fly, but God knows we can try

And I see a hope that's in her eyes

Oh, can you see the love in mine?

She told about her mum and dad and they sound just like mine

Day by day, exchangin' names, and two souls intertwined

And we have both got it wrong from time to time, but let that go

We lead each other hand in hand as we mend our broken souls

Well, darlin', here we go again

Oh, we are only blood and bones that cover beatin' hearts

Scarred by sticks and stones, but we know who we are

And I could put you back together when you come apart

And we should make a start now, oh

Oh, she said we are penguins on the ice

We're not meant to fly, but God knows we can try

And I see a hope that's in her eyes

Oh, can you see the love in mine?

And it feels like we've found serenity

And some things are not what they seem

My love, right now it's only you and me

Oh, she said we are penguins on the ice

We're not meant to fly, but God knows we can try

And I see a hope that's in her eyes

Oh, can you see the love in mine?

Oh, she said we are penguins on the ice

We're not meant to fly, but God knows we can try

And I see a hope that's in her eyes

Oh, can you see the love in mine?
