lyrics
there is a feeling i get when you’re near me
like mud being changed into wine
we’ll have a party for you and my body
you’ll drink for the rest of your life
we are supposed to believe in each other
before we shrink
can’t get much smaller than this
there is a symptom of which you’re a victim
i sense when your defense is down
so i’ll learn to be your disease’s procedure
to cure and to keep you around
we are supposed to believe in each other
before we sink into another ice age
open a window, look out at the people
below, they don’t know we exist
so let’s close our eyes
till our minds become blind to the world
we will live in a kiss
we are supposed to believe in each other
before we sink into another ice age
we are supposed to believe in each other
before we sleep
can’t get much smaller today
like mud being changed into wine
we’ll have a party for you and my body
you’ll drink for the rest of your life
we are supposed to believe in each other
before we shrink
can’t get much smaller than this
there is a symptom of which you’re a victim
i sense when your defense is down
so i’ll learn to be your disease’s procedure
to cure and to keep you around
we are supposed to believe in each other
before we sink into another ice age
open a window, look out at the people
below, they don’t know we exist
so let’s close our eyes
till our minds become blind to the world
we will live in a kiss
we are supposed to believe in each other
before we sink into another ice age
we are supposed to believe in each other
before we sleep
can’t get much smaller today
