Elbow - Switching Off Lyrics
Last of the men in hats hops off the coilAnd a final scene unfolds insideDeep in the rain of sparks behind his browIs a part replayed from a perfect dayTeaching her how to whistle like a boyLove's first blushChorusIs this making sense?What am I trying to say?Early evening JuneThis room and a radio playThis I need to saveI choose my final thoughts todaySwitching off with youAll the clocks give inAnd the traffic fadesAnd the insects like a neon choirThe instant fizzConnection madeAnd the curtains sighIn timeWith youChorus 2You, the only sense the world has ever madeEarly evening JuneThis room and radio playThis I need to saveI choose my final scene todaySwitching offRan to ground for a while thereBut I came off pretty wellChorus 3You, the only sense the world has ever madeThis I need to saveA simple trinket locked awayI choose my final scene todaySwitching off with you
