Living Lux Lyrics - Hymns - Bloc Party

Shyness invaded 

On the Champs-Élysées 

The world was ours then 

I had conviction 

But you, you had style 

Such a lethal combination 

The years changed us 

The money weighed us down 

We lost our way 

Let me spoil you 

Pick a place to go 

I want to spend my money on you 

And don't you remember 

How this began? 

You begged me for a chance 

Don't waste your sorry 

No, don't waste your goodbyes 

Tonight 

From hand to mouth and now 

We're living lux 

I ordered a lobster 

And you, them away 

The waitress thinks that we can't pay, no 

What does she know? 

Our pockets are full-grown 

And we've earned the right to fine dine 

So raise your glass 

My old friend 

For we both know 

That this is the end 

For the times we fought 

And the times we shared 

I'll sing you a song 

The way I used to then 

Don't you remember? 

How this began? 

You begged me for a chance 

Don't waste your sorry 

No, don't waste your goodbyes 

Tonight 

From hand to mouth and now 

We're living lux 

We're living lux
