Hold Me Close (underground) Lyrics - Singles - Beautiful South The

[Incomprehensible] 

There's something very English about 'Forever' 

'Hugs and kisses' are English too 

'Forever and a day' has to be American 

But 'Hold me, close' is me and you, 'Hold me, close' is me and you 

So pilots do it in the air 

And surfers do it, wave after wave 

But soon, they'll be looking limp and lifeless 

We'll still be at it in our grave 

(So, hold me close, underground) 

I'll be there, I'll wait for you 

In with the old and out with the new 

(So, hold me close, underground) 

I'll be there, I'll wait for you 

In with the old and out with the new 

In with the old, out with the new 

'Man and wife' just doesn't suit us 

'Just us two' is hardly true 

I couldn't care about 'Mr and Mrs' 

But 'You and I' is me and you, 'You and I' is me and you 

Potholers do it with the lights off 

And hikers do it long and slow 

I'll still be trying to get your clothes off 

When I lie six foot below 

(So, hold me close, underground) 

I'll be there, I'll wait for you 

In with the old and out with the new 

(Hold me close, underground) 

I'll be there, I'll wait for you 

In with the old and out with the new 

(Hold me close, underground) 

I'll be there, I'll wait for you 

In with the old and out with the new 

(Hold me close, underground) 

I'll be there, I'll wait for you 

In with the old and out with the new 

In with the old, out with the new 

When it's turned too overbearing 

You and I will still be here 

When it's turned too overbearing 

You and I will still be here 

You and I will still be here 

You and I will still be here 

You and I will still be here 

You and I will still be here
