Don't Lie Songtext

von Vampire Weekend

One look sent knees to the ground
Young bloods can't be settling down
Young hearts need the pressure to pound
So hold me close, my baby
Don't lie
I want him to know
Gods' loves die young
Is he ready to go?
It's the last time running through snow
Where the vaults are full and the fire's bold
I want to know - does it bother you?
The low click of a ticking clock
There's a lifetime right in front of you
And everyone I know
Young turks
Young saturday night
Young hips shouldn't break on this ice
Old flames - they can't warm you tonight
So keep it cool, my baby
Don't lie
I want him to know

Dial up, three rings and return him his gold
It's the last time running through snow
Where the vaults are full and the fire's bold
I want to know - does it bother you?
The low click of a ticking clock
There's a headstone right in front of you
And everyone I know
Don't lie
I want him to know

Gods' loves die young
Is he ready to go?
It's the last time running through snow
Cos if I can't last and the winds are cold
I want to know - does it bother you?
The low click of a ticking clock
There's a lifetime right in front of you
And everyone I know
