The Concretes

Oh my love is spilling over
slipping through my hands
dripping on the floor
and all over your shirt

Oh my love is spilling over
getting out of hand
seeping through the floorboards
soaking almost every corner
almost every corner

Oh my love
oh my love
oh my love…

Oh my love is like an ocean
making big waves
back on shore they wave a red flag

Oh my love is like an ocean
and you’re the captain of a ship
you feel mighty, you feel big
and you swear,
you swear you can control her
you swear you can control her

Oh my love
oh my love
oh my love…

My love is like an ocean
like an ocean
like an ocean…

oh my love
oh my love
oh my love…

oh oh my love

Take me back to, when I met you
take me back to around that time
take me back to what went through your head
and what went through mine

Take me back to, take me all the way
take me back, to what we had
take me back to
the treetops
the sun
back to the grass

take all, take all the things i told you
I take them
I take them back

I got to know when your smile was warm and winter was just a word
I got to know you when days were long
and your heart was pure

and I will love you I will always love you
I don’t love who you’ve become
I will treasure, I will always treasure
the high grass, the sun

Take me back to when I met you
take me back for a while
Tell me what happens to
that heart of yours,
the summer in your smile

Take all, take all the things
Take all, take all the things  I told you
I take them
I take them back

I got to know when your smile was warm and winter was just a word
I got to know you when days were long
and your heart was pure

and I will love you I will always love you
I don’t love who you’ve become
I will treasure, I will always treasure
the high grass, the sun

I will treasure, I will always treasure
the high grass
the sun

Sing for me about letting go
Sing for me, sing a song
About love and loss
love and losing

Sing for me about letting go
Sing for me, sing a song
About love and loss
love and losing

Sing for me til we find a cure
Sing for me til the sun comes over the rooftops
Sing for me til we find a cure
Sing for me til the sun comes over the rooftops

Sing for me
Sing like you always used to
Sing for me
About letting go

I wish we’d never met
I wish you never got them thoughts into your head
that you needed me
that for a while you wouldn’t let it lie

I wish we’d never met
I wish I wouldn’t be so easily impressed
I wish I didn’t feel the need for you to see me

For as long as I let you in when you call me
You will let me down, I will let me down
And as long as I let you go where you please to go
you don’t mean to but you walk,
you walk all over me

I wish you’d bring the rain
I wish you’d bring clouds and I wish you’d bring a storm
I wish you wouldn’t come at all
but if you did I’d be warned

One day I’ll find a cure,
one day I’ll learn to leave you and we will be no more
like we haven’t been at all,
like we were before

For as long as I let you in when you call me
you will let me down, I will let you down
And as long as I let you walk all over
you don’t mean to but you walk,
you walk without me

For as long as I let you in when you call me
You will let me down, I will let me down
And as long as I let you walk all over me
You don’t mean to but you walk,
you walk without me

Sunsets, full moons don’t turn you on.
