Bloc Party The Present Lyrics

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
