Clare Bowditch And The Feeding Set - Winding Up lyrics

You call me on the line,

Sing me a song about horses.

You're crying down that line.

You say these tears bring you life.

Hey it's just a song.

They're never meant to last that long.

But then I cry because

I am the cause, I'm not the comfort.

We are winding up

Both our bodies say it's true but

While we're still winding up

I'm still me and you're still you yes.

We drove a cage across a desert stage,

Friends in tow

To catch some ocean fish,

To spit their bones out the window.

One windy night, we stop to fight;

Fight fight to fall asleep

Next to each other we're like babies.

We are winding up

Both our bodies know it's true but

Whilst we're winding up

You be me and I'll be you yeah.
