Beautiful South Hold Me Close (underground) Lyrics

Hold Me Close (underground) Lyrics

[Incomprehensible]



There's something very English about 'Forever'

'Hugs and kisses' are English too

'Forever and a day' has to be American

But 'Hold me, close' is me and you, 'Hold me, close' is me and you



So pilots do it in the air

And surfers do it, wave after wave

But soon, they'll be looking limp and lifeless

We'll still be at it in our grave



(So, hold me close, underground)

I'll be there, I'll wait for you

In with the old and out with the new



(So, hold me close, underground)

I'll be there, I'll wait for you

In with the old and out with the new

In with the old, out with the new



'Man and wife' just doesn't suit us

'Just us two' is hardly true

I couldn't care about 'Mr and Mrs'

But 'You and I' is me and you, 'You and I' is me and you



Potholers do it with the lights off

And hikers do it long and slow

I'll still be trying to get your clothes off

When I lie six foot below



(So, hold me close, underground)

I'll be there, I'll wait for you

In with the old and out with the new



(Hold me close, underground)

I'll be there, I'll wait for you

In with the old and out with the new



(Hold me close, underground)

I'll be there, I'll wait for you

In with the old and out with the new



(Hold me close, underground)

I'll be there, I'll wait for you

In with the old and out with the new

In with the old, out with the new



When it's turned too overbearing

You and I will still be here

When it's turned too overbearing

You and I will still be here



You and I will still be here

You and I will still be here

You and I will still be here

You and I will still be here
