The Blow - True Affection lyrics

I was out of your league

And you were twenty-thousand underneath the sea

Waving affections

You were out of my league

At a distance that I didn't want to see

Down to the bottom

I wanted a junction and often there was one

You'd surfaced face first and we'd

Share thought bubbles and

I still believed in the phases that we breathed

But I know the distance isn't fair to cross

I was out of your league

And you were twenty-thousand underneath the sea

Waving affections

You were out of my league

At a distance that I didn't want to see

I wanted you nearer

Your depths made a pressure that

Punctured my works and all your fluids couldn't tolerate the

Force of my thirst

I love the place where we shared our tiny grace

But just because its real don't mean its gonna work

I was out of your league

And you were twenty-thousand underneath the sea

Waving affections

You were out of my league

At a distance that I didn't want to see

I wanted you nearer

And true affection floats

True affection sinks

Like a stone

I never felt so close

I never felt so all alone

I was out of your league

And you were twenty-thousand underneath the sea

Waving affections

You were out of my league

At a distance that I didn't want to see

I wanted you nearer.
