Hold Me Close (Underground)

[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus 1]
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

[Chorus]
(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

[Verse 2]
'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

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Potholers do it with the lights off
Hikers do it long and slow
I'll still be trying to get your clothes off
When I lie six foot below

[Chorus x2]

[Outro]
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 x4
