Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark
"Universal"


IÂ¡ÂЇm very close to far away
And I canÂ¡ÂЇt hear the words you say
So take what you can take what you find
Take it all into your mind

IÂ¡ÂЇm very close to letting go
Even closer than you know
I need what you have need what you give
I need your love to make me live
So talk to me now talk to me slow
Say the words I told you so
I know you donÂ¡ÂЇt believe me
Or all the things I say
But if youÂ¡ÂЇd just receive me
WeÂ¡ÂЇre very close to far away

IÂ¡ÂЇm very close to far away
And I canÂ¡ÂЇt hear the words you say
So take what you can take what you find
Take it all into your mind

I know you donÂ¡ÂЇt believe me
Or all the things I say
But if youÂ¡ÂЇd just receive me
WeÂ¡ÂЇre very close to far away
IÂ¡ÂЇm very close to far away
And I canÂ¡ÂЇt hear the words you say
I need what you have need what you give
I need your love to make me live

IÂ¡ÂЇm very close to letting go
Even closer than you know
So take what you can
Take what you find
Take it all into your mind
