Song information

Artist: Everything But The Girl
Album: Temperamental

Lyrics

From the top you can see so far into the distance
Look, it's downhill all the way from here
And getting there is quicker, let go and you just slide
Shouldn't take more then a year

I could almost like you
Now it's nearly over
Now you've shown some weakness
Now you're looking older

I heard what you said
And I recognize those feelings
I know how hard it is to watch it go
And all the effort that it took to get there in the first place
And all the effort not to let the effort show

I could almost like you
Now we're falling over
Now you've feeling hopeless
Now you're looking over your shoulder

Who's gonna come and find you?

If you can ride the backlash
There's still time for a comeback
You don't have to lie down and die
But lazarus he only did it the one time -
He couldn't face another try

I could almost like you
Now you're falling over
Now it's really over
Now you've shown some weakness
Now you're looking over your shoulder

Who's gonna come and find you?
Who's coming up behind you
