La Roux - Otherside Lyrics

Only wanted to get down when I'm feeling low
Only wanted to sit there when the signal is slow
Only wanted to sit down and fantasize
I wouldn't wanna be lying
Wouldn't wanna be lying to myself
You're a little bit lost in someone else
Oh you've been there walking by my side
Telling me to hang on, think that's alright

Oh I know
I'm coming from the other side
I know
I'm hidden but we don't live twice
I won't
Stand still and let this all go by
Don't talk
Come here and kiss me don't think twice

Baby there's a question that I've had on my lips
Are you paying attention? Don't be careless about this
I don't fit the file but it matters in my heart
I don't understand you, are you here to take my soul?
Be the God blessed one
That turns my spirit gold
I don't wanna chase something
That's wrong so just let it be known
Even when I'm switched off the yearning carries on
And I don't wanna feel anything for anyone anymore

I know
I'm coming from the other side
I know
I'm hidden but we don't live twice
I won't
Stand still and let this all go by
Don't talk
Come here and kiss me don't think twice

Baby where you're hiding isn't really clear to me
I don't wanna divide it so let's add it carefully
Barely set the pace so I decided not to show
I don't feel better so what matters if I go
Baby I know that it's hardest to fight
When finding somebody that slips in your mind

I don't like it, I don't tell you
But deep down inside
I'm fighting my body
But please don't ask why

(Be on your mind)
(I prefer to get down)
(Than be livin' a lie)
(Da-da-da-da)

Don't wanna be on your mind
I prefer to get down
Than be livin' a lie
I'm afraid you got found
Is it real to deny?
I've been thinking 'bout how
I can leave anytime
I've been thinking 'bout time

With the birds and the bees
I've been wondering 'bout
When will you finally see
Elephants and birds
Hanging 'round in the trees

Just look closer they're all
Looking at you and me
Elephants and birds
When you finally see
Elephants and birds
Hanging 'round in the trees
