Song | Babel |
Artist | Massive Attack |
Album | Heligoland |
Say it was your babel | |
Say it was my babel | |
It was my babel | |
Tell all people | |
Now you know it's over rolling off her shoulder | |
You can take a ladder to the shadows and forget | |
Was it how she kissed you and then dismissed you | |
Was it purposeful and was it just to hook you in | |
Hallucinating, chasing, changing, racing | |
Breaking, hating till you lost it all | |
Where was your girlfriend, he was not your man | |
Where you were going, you're on your own | |
He was quick to burning | |
He was slow to learning | |
Though inside your misty | |
He still kissed her when she cried | |
And did your best to please her | |
And then get up and leave her | |
You befriended the harsh way it ended now sleep tight |
Say it was your babel | |
Say it was my babel | |
It was my babel | |
Tell all people | |
Now you know it' s over rolling off her shoulder | |
You can take a ladder to the shadows and forget | |
Was it how she kissed you and then dismissed you | |
Was it purposeful and was it just to hook you in | |
Hallucinating, chasing, changing, racing | |
Breaking, hating till you lost it all | |
Where was your girlfriend, he was not your man | |
Where you were going, you' re on your own | |
He was quick to burning | |
He was slow to learning | |
Though inside your misty | |
He still kissed her when she cried | |
And did your best to please her | |
And then get up and leave her | |
You befriended the harsh way it ended now sleep tight |
