[Verse 1]
It's better to sing
That you stick to your wings
Then to roll in the past
But right in the blur
Of a stormed apparition
I was stuck out making it last
[Chorus]
Are you ready
For love to carry you home?
Keep your hands steady
You’re bound to be unknown
[Verse 2]
When you were getting low
In the Manchester snow
I was buying new jeans
When you were giving head
In the cold of his bed
I had lapped you twice
I don't know their names
But I know what they mean
At least I’m not another major machine
[Chorus]
Are you ready
For love to carry you home?
Keep your hands steady
You’re bound to be unknown
Are you ready now
For love to carry you home?
Keep your hands steady
You’re bound to be unknown
[Outro]
If my soul is returning
From where I cannot see
From smoke into summer
Tonight could set us free
In the morning there is sunlight
And it burns into our world
Oh little darling we have learned
