Slow Club - Number One lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

I looked up and all I could see was mess

Who needs course when you're perfectly a drift

I've got a friends who knows just how it is

We walked a while and watched the sun arrive

Drinking and plannin', hey, you know every time

You wanna sing, I'm here

Golden storm, put that hurricane away

I wasn't flattered when you named it after me

I wanna lay down almost constantly cause I know

(Chorus)

Just how to look the other way

It was so much easier yesterday

When the door was open and

We're just rolling for ?

Come on, let's close it and

I'll call you number one, number one

Number one, number one

(Verse)

You're reading books about how it all should work

Written by a man who's never seen the world

Or a garden coming to color and I know of that time

When the streets arose(?), in the park while kids

Do what they've always done, time can stop

I was the lucky one

True blood runs out into the street

T.V. shows rewarding treachery

I'm watching now and I won't be the same time next week

(Chorus)

Just to learn how to look away

I wanna understand yesterday

When the door was open and we

Were just rolling for ?

Come on, let's close it and

I'll call you number one, number one

Number one, number one

(Bridge)

Don't let him rum a race

Come on out your hiding place

(Verse)

I look into your eyes but don't know how to work

Desire is power, and trust is just a word

Remember when we met, I was young and you were hurt

Maybe we should talk about what's at stake

You don't have to feel like shit and say it's o.k.

Or pretend to be asleep while you're dreaming of being awake
