The Maccabees Lyrics

Begrudgingly I
I cut your hair
And argument it followed there
That's growing old together
Lovers kiss
Let’s kiss, kiss and resolve

So pride aside I clear the air
And sweet smells they followed there
That's compromise sweetheart
Lovers kiss
Let’s kiss, kiss and resolve

Oh oh oh my love
There's ritual in the dance my love
And under day old sheets
We will dance my love

So sins confessed, I left you there
Went out into the midnight air
Taking my bedside manner
Lover’s tryst, on the list
Left to kiss and resolve

Oh oh oh my love
There's method in this madness love
And in a moment of hold me love
Oh oh oh my love
There's ritual in the dance my love
And under day old sheets
We will dance my love

Little give, little take
Little something you break
Little salt, little shake

Sweetheart, oh sweetheart
Goodnight, goodnight
Sweetheart goodnight.
