Mongoose - Body and Soul (For Cara) Lyrics

Let's go and stand in the rain
I'll hold your hand under my jacket
And all the warmth in my veins
I'll pass to you under dripping branches

In another world of mud and glitter skies, love
We will listen to the words of people much more eloquent than me

Let's have a chat on the bus
Cos even though I get to see you often
Sometimes a wall rises up between us
Can we unpick it with this corkscrew

In another world of bodies, beats and hearts pumped
I'll be hiding in a corner, searching for another friend like you

I'll hold your hand in the rain
For once don't recoil in distaste
Oh please keep me grounded cos inside I'm running
I'm stumbling I'm slipping away

In this other world of rainbow colours above
You be gold and I'll be paper, fluttering in shreds at your feet

I can't stand the sun but don't leave me in the shadows
