[Verse 1: Dickon Hinchliffe]
You know I'll always wait
Each time you take a step
So rest yourself down here a while
Rest your sleepy little head
But how do I know if that's what you want?
How do I know if you'd care?
You'd better watch yourself
The way you're drifting
[Verse 2: Stuart Staples]
They watch you while you sleep
Giving it all that you need
They take you up into their arms
Listen to your dreams
What they know is what they know you know
What they say is all you hear
It's like a lullaby
The way you're drifting
[Chorus: Stuart Staples & Dickon Hinchliffe]
I hear people keep comin' around
You'd better watch yourself
Don't talk so loud
I hear them comin' for you
People keep comin' around
You'd better watch yourself
No matter where you go
I hear them comin' for you now
[Verse 3: Stuart Staples & Dickon Hinchliffe]
Don't you know I'll always wait
Each time you take a step
So rest yourself down here a while
Rest your sleepy little head
So how do I know if that's what you want?
Why do you care?
Is that what you want? So tell me
Why do you care?
How do I know if that's what you want?
Why do you care?
Is that what you want?
[Chorus]
I hear that people keep comin' around
You'd better watch yourself
Don't talk so loud
I hear them comin' for you
People keep comin' around
You'd better watch yourself
No matter where you go
I hear them comin' for you
People keep comin' around
You'd better watch yourself
Don't talk so loud
I hear them comin' for you
People keep comin' around
You'd better watch yourself
No matter where you go
I hear them comin' for you now
[Bridge: Stuart Staples & Dickon Hinchliffe]
You keep turning
You keep running away
You keep turning
You keep running away
You keep turning
You keep running away
You keep turning
You know I'll always wait
You know I'll always wait
You know I'll always wait
You know I'll always wait
You know I'll always wait
You know I'll always wait
You know I'll always wait
[Chorus]
I hear that people keep comin' around
You'd better watch yourself
Don't talk so loud
I hear them comin' for you
People keep comin' around
You'd better watch yourself
No matter where you go
I hear them comin' for you now
