The Selfish Giant

Celebrate the passing drug

Put 'em on the back seat while they're coursing in your blood

It's there amongst us all

Walking down Argyll Street when the evening colours call

It's true

I had a dream you were leaving

It's hard to be a lover when the TV's on

And nothing is in your eyes

I had a dream you were leaving

Where every atom falling in the universe

Is passing through our lives

Press yourself to me right now

Push yourself deep down now, to the dark hills, I must go

Where the shadows hide

Waiting for the final call, it's coming down the line

Retain

I had a dream you were leaving

It's hard to be a lover when the TV's on

And nothing is in your eyes

I had a dream you were leaving

Where every atom falling in the universe

Is passing through our lives

I had a dream you were leaving

Retain

I had a dream you were leaving

It's hard to be a lover when the TV's on

And nothing is in your eyes

It's true

I had a dream you were leaving

Where every atom falling in the universe

Is passing through our lives

I had a dream you were leaving

I had a dream you were leaving
