Bloc Party - Paraíso lyrics
[Bloc Party - Paraíso lyrics]
It was a look that I understood
In another life
Maybe I would have been yours
Vision in white standing by the bar
Like a wrecking ball, like a Japanese weight
It makes the waters rise in me
How'd you do that thing you do?
The beautiful charmer could be a deceiver too
It's making me do things I mustn't do
My appetite for love is now a hunger thirst
Whoever you are
We spoke of Lagos and Rotterdam
Dancing cheek to cheek, get behind me, Satan
And all my good will is coming loose
Like a ball of yarn, like a bad excuse
It makes the embers glow in me
It's your move
How'd you do that thing you do?
The beautiful charmer could be a deceiver too
It's making me do things I mustn't do
My appetite for love is now a hunger thirst
Whoever you are whoever you are
I don't believe in coincidence
You were sent this way for me
For it takes two to step this dance
Let us find a quiet place to sit
If tonight is all
Let me gaze upon your lashes let it be known
That I gave myself completely over
Paraíso paraíso
In another life
Maybe I would have been yours
Vision in white standing by the bar
Like a wrecking ball, like a Japanese weight
It makes the waters rise in me
How'd you do that thing you do?
The beautiful charmer could be a deceiver too
It's making me do things I mustn't do
My appetite for love is now a hunger thirst
Whoever you are
We spoke of Lagos and Rotterdam
Dancing cheek to cheek, get behind me, Satan
And all my good will is coming loose
Like a ball of yarn, like a bad excuse
It makes the embers glow in me
It's your move
How'd you do that thing you do?
The beautiful charmer could be a deceiver too
It's making me do things I mustn't do
My appetite for love is now a hunger thirst
Whoever you are whoever you are
I don't believe in coincidence
You were sent this way for me
For it takes two to step this dance
Let us find a quiet place to sit
If tonight is all
Let me gaze upon your lashes let it be known
That I gave myself completely over
Paraíso paraíso
