Hold Me Close (Underground) The Beautiful South

[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus 1]
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

[Chorus]
(So, hold me close, underground)
I'll be there, I'll wait for you
In with the old and out with the new
(So, hold me close, underground)
I'll be there, I'll wait for you
In with the old and out with the new
In with the old, out with the new

[Verse 2]
'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
