Suede - The Fur & The Feathers

On the platform you are waiting

Your arms are bare

There’s a warning in your eyes

And the cold earth waits for me there

As I hurry past the railings

You brush your dress

And with the mourning in your eyes

And that look of hungriness

And who knows what we’ve begun

We are thrown together

From the moment we are young

The fur and the feathers, the fox and the geese

The thrill of the chase

It’s the thrill of the chase

And I know that there’s a meaning

Beyond the flesh

Well, I’ve found some different feeling

In the grip of your caress

On the platform you are waiting

And my breathing stops

I’m so scared of touching you

But I’m scared to not

And who knows what we’ve begun

We are thrown together

And who knows what we’ll become

The fur and the feathers, the fox and the geese

The thrill of the chase

It’s the thrill of the chase

And who knows what we’ll become

As we brave the weather

From the moment we are young

The fur and the feathers, the fox and the geese

The thrill of the chase

It’s the thrill of the chase

Suede - I Don't Know How to Reach You

Remember when we were standing
Dappled and still unshaved
Hiding from hidden cameras
In the shadow of the cranes

The things that I stole I gave you
The things that you said you liked
I bought you those pretty things
But you gave them back

Now I don’t know how to reach you
I don’t know where to look
I turn away from my mistakes
Try not to look

And I don’k know how to reach you
I don’t know where to look
I turn away, I fold the page, I close the book

I’d steal a shadow for you
I’d love you like a knife
From the towers I try to call you
From the depths of the power lines

Tell me the things that scare you
Touch me with terror’s flame
Fill me with hesitation, again

Cause I don’t know how to reach you
I don’t know where to look
I turn away from my mistakes
Try not to look

And I don’k know how to reach you
I don’t know where to look
I turn away, I fold the page, I close the book

And I don’k know how to reach you
I don’t know where to look
I turn away, I fold the page, I close the book

I never thought it would happen
I never thought it would happen

Happen to me
Happen to me
Happen to me

Suede - Tightrope

You seem to love me when I’m not around
When I have to go to ground
You just seem to want me when I’m never there
Silence is everywhere

On a tightrope with you
Too scared to look down through my fingers
Walking a tightrope with you
I made my mistake when I slipped through the noose

You seem to know where your life’s headed next
But first you'll just stay in bed
Clicking your fingers and dragging your heels
The high life is within you

On a tightrope with you
Too scared to look down through my fingers
Walking a tightrope with you
I made my mistake when I slipped through the noose

We know more than we used to
We know more than we used to

On a tightrope with you
Too scared to look down through my fingers
Walking a tightrope with you
I made my mistake when I slipped through the noose

You seem to love me when I am not around
But I have to go to ground
But you seem to want me when I am never there
Silence is everywhere

Suede - Outsiders

By the roadside shrine there's a place
Selling bouquets of cellophane
That's where they meet in this desolate place
And the more they see the more they say
Thrown like two winter roses into a broken vase

They're playing the hand they play
Caught in the game they made

She puts her faith in the moment
Outsiders
He puts his faith in the moment
Outsiders

And his clothes are covered in dew
As she writhes in twisted sheets
Feel the pulse and the power of you
And what you see isn't what's underneath

They're playing the hand they play
Caught in the game they made

She puts her faith in the moment
Outsiders
He puts his faith in the moment
Outsiders
