Elbow - What Am I Without You lyrics

The universe keeps singing this song
Your eyes are diabolical blue ooh
I've been watching you walk
On the water lately
My arms outstretched when you do what am I?
What am I on the earth for
If not to put you to bed?
If not to remind you to eat sometimes? If
If not to cradle your head?
What am I without you?

The universe keeps singing it's song
I can't get it out of my head
It skips right along like a stone on water
And I think I know how it ends
The last eyes I wanna see are yours
Are brown and diabolical blue
They never once criеd without laughing, baby
So I'll line up a zinger for you
That's what I'll do ooh
What am I without you? Ooh

What am I without you?
What am I without you? What am I?
