Imogen Heap - Xizi She Knows lyrics

rate me

We come to your shores over misty millennium

From hustlers to emperors for power and pleasure

We carve through the cars, dance around the Daily News

Cue in the Grande ?, even your ten-ton tone rings home for Marco Polo

(Chorus)

Slow down from a thread of sky

Slow down to the warp and weft your being

Slow down, you're beautiful, graceful, like no other

Pretty damned good as you are

Slow down, friend of mine

Slow down in a terrible hurry for change

Slow down as you unravel your marvels

From evergreen gardens, remember we loved you this way

(Verse 2)

To treasure it all, scroll out to see

In gold, fire, wood, clay and water

Your structure and flow, adagio to allegro

With leaves to the tide in full moon, plum blossom, we salute to you

(Chorus)

Slow down from a thread of sky

Slow down to the warp and weft your being

Slow down, you're beautiful, graceful, like no other

Pretty damned good as you are

Slow down, friend of mine

Slow down in a terrible hurry for change

Slow down as you unravel your marvels

From evergreen gardens, remember we loved you this way

(Chorus)

Slow down from a thread of sky

Slow down to the warp and weft your being

Slow down, you're beautiful, graceful, like no other

Pretty damned good as you are

Slow down, friend of mine

Slow down in a terrible hurry for change

Slow down as you unravel your marvels

From evergreen gardens, remember we loved you this way

(Bridge)

Whoa, to the warp and weft of your being

You're beautiful, graceful, like no other

Pretty damned good as you are!

Xizi, she knows that once it's gone, then it's gone!

Xizi, she knows that once it's gone, then it's gone!

Xizi, she knows that once it's gone, then it's gone!

(Chinese)
