Lyrics
Find another songI think I took myself too serious. It's not that serious.
Alone in someone's bedroom
She firmly took my hand
The isolation ended
I began to understand
In the ping-pong match of constant desire
I was never gonna get ahead
'Cause I was looking in the mirror
Now we've got that sympathy
What I'm to you, you are to me
Let's go
Judeo-Christianity
I'd never heard the words
Enemies for centuries
Until there was a third
In the ping-pong match of constant desire
I was never gonna get ahead
'Cause I was looking in the mirror
Now we've got that sympathy
What I'm to you, you are to me
Let's go
Diego Garcia
Surrounded by the waves
Lonely in the ocean
But in every other way
It was full of love
And the warmest fellow-feeling
Now we've got that sympathy
What I'm to you, you are to me
Let's go
I didn't have your sympathy
But I knew where to start
Explaining to you patiently
That the one who broke my heart
Would have broken yours
And thrown the pieces in the river
Now we've got that sympathy
What I'm to you, you are to me
Let's go
Let's go
Let's go
Let's go
Desperate for an enemy
But too afraid to kill
Use the pain of someone else
And triumph for their will
And spill the blood of the arrogant mosquitoes
Now we've got that sympathy
What I'm to you, you are to me
Let's go
