Imelda May - The Longing lyrics

My heart is thumpin' inside of my chest
My temple is burnin' and drippin' with sweat
My mind is spinnin' yeah swimmin' around
My tongues dried up like I've
Been lickin' the ground

It's the longing the longing for you
It's the longing

The hole in my chest it twists like a knife
Takin' over my body, takin' over my life
I can't think of nothin'
No one else gonna do
I'm haunted by the living, yeah, wantin' you

It's the longing the longing for you
It's the longing the longing for you
It's the longing the longing for you
It's the longing the longing for you

Gotta gotta get to you gotta get to you
Gotta gotta get to you gotta get to you
Gotta gotta get to you gotta get to you

The moon can move the ocean
Could it get me to you?
I got myself the notion that
You long for me too
Gonna drag every limb of my body to see
If just one wave can push me closer to thee

It's the longing the longing for you
It's the longing the longing for you
It's the longing the longing for you
It's the longing the longing for you

My tongue's dried up and
It's hangin' down yeah pacin' the floor
Like I'm a dog on the prowl yeah
Lookin' at the moon and I wanted to howl yeah
Under your spell, want to be under you now

It's the longing the longing for you
It's the longing the longing for you
It's the longing the longing for you
It's the longing the longing
Gotta gotta get to you gotta get to you
Gotta gotta get to you gotta get to you
Gotta gotta get to you gotta get to you
Gotta gotta get to you gotta get to you

Ohhhh ohhh

Gotta gotta get to you gotta get to you
Gotta gotta get to you gotta get to you
Gotta gotta get to you gotta get to you
Gotta gotta get to you gotta get to you
