Elbow - The Stops lyrics

I can't undo the day

It won't go under the rug

I pull out all the stops

And you pull the plug

These are sober days and I know it can't be

But I'll miss you the way you miss the sea

Don't look down

Keep staring like you've never seen the stars

If you need me to remind you who you are

Little blossom there's the shiniest soul

Just behind those eyes

"No longer my affair"

Well I can't go there just yet

So I've come to love and trust those friends

That are holding your net

Falling off used to mean

Maybe grazing a knee

And I'll miss you the way you miss the sea

Don't look down

Keep staring like you've never seen the stars

If you need me to remind you who you are

Little blossom there's the shiniest soul

Just behind these eyes

While I won't second guess

What you're thinking of me
