Portishead Pearl Lyrics

Pearl Lyrics

I want you now as then

DOn't tell me

you want to stay

too much time

Now has passed

too too soon a thing to do

I was only thinking i would do right

Now and then i need a little sting

I was only trying not to second guess

Why you came



But Since i have changed

I'm chasing opposites 

Things that you do

Stay on my mind till i'm 

So tired I can't

I can't see when you go

I can't see when you keep silencing me

Telling me things

No reason I should stay

When you know what to say 

To tug me



Talk is cheap

That look of yours

Too Too cold now

The call

Could you feel 

So ravaged and misunderstood

Everything changed

Nothing remains



So consider now when it was easy

Knowing what you do 

And what you gave

I was silly knowing what was to be

My mistake



But Since I have changed

I'm chasing opposites 

Things that you do

Stay on my mind till I'm 

So tired I can't 

I can't see when you go

I can't see when you keep silencing me

Telling me things

No reason I should stay

When you know what to say 

To tug me



Since i have changed

I'm chasing opposites 

Things that you do

Stay on my mind till i'm 

So tired I can't see when you go

I can't see when you keep silencing me

Telling me things

No reason I should stay

When you know what to say 

To tug me
