The Beautiful South - Hold Me Close (Underground) lyrics

Your rating:


(Heaton/Rotheray)

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 



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 





Hold me close, underground 

Hold me close, underground 

I'll be there, I'll wait for you 

In with the old, out with the new 



'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 



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 6ft below 



Hold me close, underground 

Hold me close, underground 

I'll be there, I'll wait for you 

In with the old, out with the new 





I'll be there, I'll wait for you 

Hold me close, underground 

In with the old, out with the new 

Hold me close, underground 



When it's turned to overbearing 

You and I will still be here
