Give me something to hold
That lasts until I'm old
That won't get changed or rearranged
When it all gets bought and sold
When it all gets bought and sold
Keep me on the run
Alive and forever young
As the leaves die under the Autumn sun
And the final day has come
And the web's been finally spun
Meet me in my hidden place,
Where I hide my disillusioned face
Off the beaten track where there's no way back, With the cider and blacks and the panic attacks You and me are calling the shots
Connecting souls like dot to dots
The stars in the sky like teenage spots
That shine but pine for love
My mind keeps wagin' war
I've been here many times before
There's a lump in the throat when the boat still floats
But the captain's not too sure
No, the captain's never too sure
There's no footprints in the sand,
Where my ocean meets your land
Through the seven seas, through the fields and trees,
On the bleeding knees, with the OCDs
You and me are calling the shots
Connecting souls like dot to dots
The stars in the sky like teenage spots
That shine but pine for love
That shine but pine for love
Give me something to hold
That lasts until I'm old
That won't get changed or rearranged
When it all gets bought and sold
When it all gets bought and sold
Keep me on the run
Alive and forever young
As the leaves die under the Autumn sun
And the final day has come
And the web's been finally spun
