Like A Honeycomb Lyrics - Singles - British Sea Power

Mother, maiden, aunt or brother 

On the masonry, and there are others 

Like you, beheaded lover 

In the cemetery 

Seems rather sad to me 

Oh, seems rather sad to me 

Oh, amour centenary 

Available for all to see 

But in between the morning and the evening lights 

Is how the days go by 

And in between the evening and the morning lights 

Oh don't the stars look nice? 

But in between the evening and the morning lights 

Is how the days go by 

And in between the evening and the morning lights 

Oh don't the stars look nice? 

At first the settings broke 

Now the machinery stops 

And the country's all sectioned off 

Like a honeycomb 

Oh cells of foam 

Like separated bones 

Have you been waiting for long? 

Oh in between the evening and the morning lights 

Is how the days go by 

And in between the evening and the morning lights 

Oh don't the stars look nice? 

In between the evening and the morning lights 

Is how the days go by 

And in between the evening and the morning lights 

Oh don't the stars look nice? 

And oh, oh, oh, oh 

Ain't it going well? 

And oh, oh-oh-oh 

But it's so hard to tell 

It's like everything you never said 

But always meant to say 

It's like everything you never did 

And did it anyway 

But in between the morning and the evening lights 

Is how the days go by 

In between the evening and the morning lights 

Oh don't the stars look nice!
