The Ascent Of Man Lyrics - Around The Sun - Rem

So hesitation pulled me back 

I'm stronger when I don't attract 

In your eyes I'm a lamb without a rack 

And I am getting confused 

I'm a cactus trying to be a canoe 

As you pan for ore 

In the desert, floored 

I say to you 

That I could never imagine a place so beautiful 

I could never steal your gold away 

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah... 

(I try to walk like a big wham bam 

I came across like a battering ram 

I try to float like a telegram sam 

I'm trying to divine you.)

My book is called "The Ascent Of Man" 

I marked your chapter with a catamaran 

The accent's off 

But I am what I am 

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah... 

(I try to walk like a big wham bam 

I came across like a battering ram 

I try to float like a telegram sam 

I'm trying to divine you.) 

I looked for you, it's my last grandstand 

A motorscootered goat legged pan 

Figure eighting in quicksand... 

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah... 

(I try to walk like a big wham bam 

I try to float like a telegram sam 

I came across like a battering ram 

I'm trying to divine you.) 

(I try to walk like a big wham bam 

I try to float like a telegram sam 

I came across like a battering ram 

I'm trying to divine you.) 

So hesitation pulled me back 

I'm so in love I don't attract 

And with my hands tied I won't crack 

('Cause in my mind I called you back.)
