Hold Still Songtext

von Jarvis Cocker

The train was leaving in ten minutes or so.
Struggling with the suitcases, I did not see you go.
My heart stopped beating and I felt my blood run cold.
'Hold still', I told you but you moved.
Now you're gone; I can't find you.
Growing - yeah, we are growing but why bother?
When you can hover. Oh.

On your knees and behold the might of The Master.
Eyes explode at the very sight of The Master.
We're Cosmic Dust, but you're everything to me.

Like a single parent at the fair
And you're spinning above me.
Spinning - you're moving fast, but you're going nowhere.
Yeah baby, that's the way. Oh.

On your knees and behold the might of The Master.
Eyes explode at the very sight of The Master.
Kittens are cute, but a full-grown cat can be cuter
And I'm alive, but I plan to die in the future.

Hold still.
Hold still.
Hold still.
We're Cosmic Dust, but you're everything to me.
