Bloc Party – The Present lyrics
If you're cold and you're alone
And you don't know where to go
You can call me anytime
Nothing's changed, I am still here
If you're running out of breath
And your building's burning down
You can jump, I will catch you
Nothing's changed, I am still here
With heavy hands and an absent mind
Did I blow your candle out?
With shortened words and a lack of time
Am I ever on your mind?
Was I cruel and never there?
Nothing to rely on
Was our romance a black hole?
You kept the better half than me
Well if you really wanted to know
Well no the earth's not moved for me since
I wish I could've given you lightness
The lightness that you deserve
And they say time is a healer
And time will look after you
I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait
Come over
Come over
Why don't you come over?
Well if you really wanted to know
Well no the earth's not moved for me since
I wish I could've given you lightness
The lightness that you deserve
And they say time is a healer
And time will look after you
Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go
Come over
And I stole you that ring
'Cause I wanted you to have it
And it wasn't about me, I just wanted you to have it
Your smile, baby your smile, baby I come alive
I feel so naked, like before we met
Last night I was so close to just calling you up
They say it takes time to heal the wounds
I can't wait, I can't wait
Come over
And you don't know where to go
You can call me anytime
Nothing's changed, I am still here
If you're running out of breath
And your building's burning down
You can jump, I will catch you
Nothing's changed, I am still here
With heavy hands and an absent mind
Did I blow your candle out?
With shortened words and a lack of time
Am I ever on your mind?
Was I cruel and never there?
Nothing to rely on
Was our romance a black hole?
You kept the better half than me
Well if you really wanted to know
Well no the earth's not moved for me since
I wish I could've given you lightness
The lightness that you deserve
And they say time is a healer
And time will look after you
I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait
Come over
Come over
Why don't you come over?
Well if you really wanted to know
Well no the earth's not moved for me since
I wish I could've given you lightness
The lightness that you deserve
And they say time is a healer
And time will look after you
Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go
Come over
And I stole you that ring
'Cause I wanted you to have it
And it wasn't about me, I just wanted you to have it
Your smile, baby your smile, baby I come alive
I feel so naked, like before we met
Last night I was so close to just calling you up
They say it takes time to heal the wounds
I can't wait, I can't wait
Come over
