The Ryde - Tell Me What It Is Lyrics

From the Album: Take Aim

VERSE 1
She sleeps with one eye open
She sleeps with one eye closed
She resurrects a feeling
I just couldn’t hold

She walks and talks with action
She made a move but nothing ever happened
Is this the angel I ignore?

Why did I try –-
To hold
The holy hands

PRE-CHORUS
And all you need
Is a friend like me –-

CHORUS
Tell me what it is that you hide
Tell me the story all about your life
Take my hand, hold it tight
Cause I’m losing the fight
To keep me calm tonight

VERSE 2
So she placed a hand on my chest
It gave my heartbeat a rest
Now I know everything’s gonna end alright

She has a warm safe destination
A quiet place amongst a foolish nation
Should I explore it
Or do I ignore it

Why did I try
To hold
The holy hands

PRE-CHORUS
And all you need
Is a friend like me

CHORUS x2
Tell me what it is that you hide
Tell me the story all about your life
Take my hand, hold it tight
Cause I’m losing the fight
To keep me calm –-

Tell me what it is that you hide
Tell me the story all about your life
Take my hand, hold it tight
Cause I’m losing the fight
To keep me calm tonight
