When you’re feeling like a lover
Nothing really matters anymore
I saw you standing there
In the supermarket
With your red dress falling
And your eyes to the ground
Nothing really matters
Nothing really matters
When the one you love is gone
It’s still in me
Baby I need you
In my heart
I need you
Cause nothing really matters
I’m standing in the doorway
You’re walking round to my place
In your red dress
Hair hanging down
With your eyes on the one
We love the ones we can
Cause nothing really matters
When you’re standing
Standing
I need you
I need you
Cause nothing really matters
We followed the lines
In the palms of our hands
You’re standing in the supermarket
Holding hands
In you red dress falling
Falling in
Falling in
And the long black cars waiting round
I will miss you when you’re gone
I’ll miss you when you’re gone
Away forever
Cause nothing really matters
I thought I knew better. So much better
And I need you
I need you
Cause nothing really matters
O that night we wrecked like a train
Purring cars
In the pouring rain
Never felt right about it
Never again
Cause nothing really matters
Cause nothing really matters anymore
Not even today
No matter how hard I try
When you’re standing in the aisle
And baby
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
I need
I need
I need you
I need you
I need you
Just breathe
Just breathe
I need you
Some go and some stay behind
Some never move at all
Girl in amber trapped forever, spinning down the hall
Let no part of her go unremembered, clothes across the floor
Girl in amber, long to slumber, shuts the bathroom door
The phone, the phone, the phone it rings, it rings, it rings no more
The song, the song, the song it spins since nineteen eighty-four
The phone, the phone, the phone, it rings, the phone, it rings no more
The song, the song it's been spinning now since nineteen
And if you want to bleed, just bleed
And if you want to bleed, just bleed
And if you want to bleed, don't breathe a word
Just step away and let the world spin
And now in turn, you turn
You kneel, lace up his shoes, your little blue-eyed boy
Take him by his hand, go move and spin him down the hall
I get lucky, I get lucky cause I tried again
I knew the world it would stop spinning now since you've been gone
I used to think that when you died you kind of wandered the world
In a slumber til your crumble were absorbed into the earth
Well, I don't think that any more the phone it rings no more
The song, the song it spins now since nineteen eighty-four
The song, the song, the song it spins, it's been a spinning now
And if you'll hold me I will tell you that you know that
And if you want to leave, don't breathe
And if you want to leave, don't breathe
And if you want to leave, don't breathe a word
And let the world turn
The song, the song it spins, the song, it spins, it spins no more
The phone, it rings, it rings and you won't stay
Don't touch me
Don't touch me
Don't touch me
Don't touch me
Let us go now, my one true love
Call the gasman, cut the power out
We can set out, we can set out for the distant skies
Watch the sun, watch it rising in your eyes
Let us go now, my darling companion
Set out for the distant skies
See the sun, see it rising
See it rising, rising in your eyes
They told us our gods would outlive us
They told us our dreams would outlive us
They told us our gods would outlive us
But they lied
Let us go now, my only companion
Set out for the distant skies
Soon the children will be rising, will be rising
This is not for our eyes
