Like Only Lovers Can

Ed Harcourt


Out of nowhere you were there 
But you took your time
No one though that I could get you
Then they changed their minds

You know that I have a perfect plan
Drown in each other like only lovers can

Something is bound to come your way
And I'll watch you run astray

Walk amongst the others
Clearly state your aim
Slide beneath the covers 
And I will say your name

In the city, crowds run wild
Like ants on a farm
Villains may commit their crimes
But I won't do you harm 

Youknow that I have a perfect plan
Drown in each other like only lovers can
Something is bound to come your way
And I'll watch you run astray
Like only lovers can
Like only lovers can
Like only lovers can
