Lyrics The Maccabees

The Maccabees

Went Away

Look at you with slimmer lines

Dirty toes un-showered

Unholy sight the state of you

And every sign that you're wired again

Just look at you in the trolley line

Wild eyed you're still flying

A little less and a little more

In the middle ground you're still miles away

So hold me close don't let me go, I need you so

Tell me something I don't know, that I need to know

Hold those arms around my neck, I need you so

Somewhere sunk behind those eyes a man I've always known

And if you go to sea again

We'll see it out to horizons

To see it all it's a little late

And better never but it's happening

So hold me close don't let me go, I need you so

Somewhere sunk behind those eyes a man I've always known

That never went away...

Hold me close don't let me go, I need you
