Souvlaki Complete Lyrics

Machine Gun Lyrics

[Verse: Rachel Goswell]
See you walking and I know she's my friend again
Just the weight of the water drags me down again
Guess I'll think of the water, it's my friend, oh yeah
It's just the way that the water makes me feel again
 
[Chorus: Neil Halstead]
Son of Sheba, I saw him drown
Son of yellow, I saw him down
It's all I need, yeah
 
[Verse: Rachel Goswell]
See you walking and I know she's my friend again
Just the weight of the water drags me down again
Guess I'll think of the water, it's my friend, oh yeah
It's just the way that the water makes me feel again
 
[Chorus: Neil Halstead]
Son of Sheba, I saw him drown
Son of yellow, I saw him down
It's all I need, yeah

40 Days Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Forty days and I miss you
I'm so high that I've lost my mind
It's the summer I'm thinking of
Forty days and I'm blown away
 
[Chorus]
If I saw something good
I guess I wouldn't worry
If I saw something good
I guess I wouldn't care
 
[Verse 2]
You said you're always sleeping
But it's all I believe in
It's just that I'm always falling
And it makes me feel bad, yeah
 
[Chorus]
If I saw something good
I guess I wouldn't worry
If I saw something good
I guess I wouldn't care
 
[Outro]
Used to try and watch you
I'd center on the way that you smile
I don't know
Used to try and watch you
I'd center on the way that you smile
I don't know
Summer air and I want you
I center on the way that you smile
I don't know
Summer air and I want you
I center on the way that you smile
I don't know

When the Sun Hits Lyrics

[Verse]
Sweet thing, I watch you
Burn so fast it scares me
Mind games, don't leave me
I've come so far, don't lose me
It matters where you are
 
[Chorus]
As the sun hits, she'll be waiting
With her cool things and her heaven
Hey hey, lover, you still burn me
You're a song, yeah (Hey hey!)
 
[Verse]
Sweet thing, I watch you
Burn so fast it scares me
Mind games, don't lose me
Come so far, don't lose me
It matters where you are
 
[Chorus]
As the sun hits, she'll be waiting
With her cool things and her heaven
Hey hey, lover, you still burn me
You're a song, yeah (Hey hey!)
 
 
[Outro]
Sweet thing, I watch you (Hey hey hey!)
Sweet thing, I watch you (Hey hey hey!)
Sweet thing, I watch you (Hey hey hey!)

Altogether Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
 
[Verse 1]
Sleepyhead, where did you go?
I saw you turning, but I couldn't catch your eye
It's alright, we're altogether
 
[Refrain]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
 
[Verse 2]
And this is just a dream
It broke my heart, but then I guess you didn't know
It's alright, we're altogether
 
[Refrain]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
 
[Bridge]
So tired, you're so right
I'm so tired, it's alright tonight
 
[Refrain]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
 
 
[Verse 3]
Sleepyhead, what did you know?
I saw you talking, but I didn't hear a word
It's alright, we're altogether
 
[Refrain]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
