Xizi She Knows Lyrics

[Intro: Helen]
Yī, èr, sān, sì, wǔ, liù, qī, bā
Èr, èr, sān, sì, wǔ, liù, qī, bā
Sān, èr, sān, sì, wǔ, liù, qī, bā
Sì, èr, sān, sì, wǔ, liù, qī, bā

[Verse 1: Imogen Heap]
We come to your shores over misty millennia
From hustlers to emperors
For power and pleasure
We carve through the cars
Dance around the Daily News
Cue in the grande ballabile
Even your ten-ton tone rings home for Marco Polo

[Chorus 1: Imogen Heap]
(Slow down) From a thread of sky
(Slow down) To the warp and weft of your being
(Slow down) You're beautiful, graceful, like no other
Pretty damn good as you are
(Slow down) Friend of mine
(Slow down) In a terrible hurry for change
(Slow down) As you unravel your marvels from evergreen gardens
Remember we loved you this way

[Interlude: Helen]
Sān, èr, sān, sì, wǔ, liù, qī, bā
Sì, èr, sān, sì, wǔ, liù, qī, bā

[Verse 2: Imogen Heap]
To treasure it all, scroll out to see
In gold, fire, wood, clay, and water
Your structure and flow, adagio to allegro
With leaves to the tide
In full moon, plum blossom, we salute to you

[Chorus 2: Imogen Heap]
(Slow down) From a thread of sky
(Slow down) To the warp and weft of your being
(Slow down) Dynamic and playful, you opened my eyes, yeah
You're pretty damn good as you are
(Slow down) Friend of mine
(Slow down) Could you go for progression, not pace?
(Slow down) As you unravel your marvels
Don't lose them all on the way

[Bridge: Imogen Heap, Helen]
Mantoshan, Mantoshan, Mantoshan, Mantoshan, Mantoshan
Mantoshan, Mantoshan, Mantoshan, Mantoshan, Mantoshan


[Chorus 3: Imogen Heap]
(Slow down) From a thread of sky
(Slow down) To the warp and weft of your being
(Slow down) You're beautiful, graceful, like no other
Pretty damn good as you are
(Slow down) Friend of mine
(Slow down) You're in a terrible hurry to change
(Slow down) Unravel your marvels from evergreen gardens
Remember we loved you this way

[Post-Chorus: Imogen Heap]
Whoa, to the warp and weft of your being
You're beautiful, graceful, like no other
Pretty damn good as you are
Xizi, she knows that once it's gone, then it's gone
Xizi, she knows that once it's gone, then it's gone
Xizi, she knows that once it's gone, then it's gone

[Outro: Helen]
Yī, èr, sān, sì, wǔ, liù, qī, bā
Yī, èr, sān, sì, wǔ, liù, qī, bā
